To kick off Season 4 of Trade Knowledge Matters, we look at US Trade Policy. Amar sits down with William (Bill) Reinsch. Bill holds the Scholl Chair in International Business at the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) and also co-hosts a podcast, Trade Guys.
This episode delves into the complexities of US trade policy, examining the shifts in bipartisan consensus, the impact of economic security on trade decisions, and the evolving narratives within political parties. The discussion highlights the implications of tariffs, friend shoring, and sectoral concerns, while also addressing the challenges of market access and much more.
