Paper Summary:

This paper begins by questioning what free trade is and why the need for free trade exists. It then discusses the dilemmas that a free market faces and continues by looking at the advantages and disadvantages of a free trade policy.

From the Paper:

"Free Trade is theoretically defined as: "open trade between countries with no government regulation or restraint." By this definition, trade between nations is not restricted by quotas, licenses, taxes, safety concerns, inspections, or limits of any kind. Businesses and corporations in this environment can act without fear of repercussions. They can buy their supplier from the cheapest and most reliable bidder from any location around the world. They can also sell their products anywhere in the world. The theoretical concepts for free trade were first developed from by Adam Smith in his work, Invisible Hand. Smith postulated that self-interest can help individuals and nations accumulate wealth and prosperity."
