Trade and Wages

By Jagdish N. Bhagwati

Book Overview

An essential deep-dive for anyone questioning whether free trade is really to blame for stagnating wages, where leading economists Jagdish Bhagwati, Marvin Kosters, and Alan Deardorff cut through the NAFTA-era political noise on protectionism, globalization, and the unskilled labor market, using rigorous empirical evidence to challenge the conventional wisdom on wage dispersion, skill premiums, and the real economic winners and losers of 1980s trade policy.
