SUMMARY:Mill Talk: Tariffs and Trade\, Then and Now
DESCRIPTION:Mill Talk: Tariffs and Trade\, Then and Now \nPresented by Professor Bryan Snyder\, Bentley University and Professor Lawrence Peskin\, Morgan State University \nIn 1816\, Francis Cabot Lowell was in Washington DC lobbying Congress to pass the first protectionist tariff in American history. In the aftermath of the War of 1812\, the burgeoning cotton textile industry he had fought so hard to build was imperiled by the cheap dumping of British imports. By building a coalition between Northern industrialists and Southern plantation owners\, Lowell was successful in arguing that tariffs would ensure that American domestic manufacturing should be protected\, and that the federal government’s trade policy had a duty to so. \nNow\, tariffs are back in the political conversation\, and the efforts around the Tariff of 1816 and its consequences are as relevant as ever. Join us as we engage in a dynamic conversation connecting the past\, present\, and future of tariffs and trade policy to their effects. Economist Snyder and historian Peskin will draw lessons from American history to inform our understanding of economic policy today. \nRegistration required. \nMill Talks at the Charles River Museum of Industry and Innovation are free and open to the public and are made possible by the generous support of the Lowell Institute.
