International Freedom and Trade
Mercatus is taking on the “China Challenge.” Mercatus research shows how the United States can engage with other great powers, including major authoritarian regimes around the world, in a way that is both market-preserving and liberty-preserving. Neither blunt-force measures like import tariffs nor “romantic engagement” that overlooks security consequences will achieve this goal.
