Trade Truths: 2020 Lessons, 2021 Outlook

A webinar by the International Trade Club of Chicago

Presented by:

Douglas A. Irwin, Professor of Economics, Dartmouth College and author of “Clashing Over Commerce: A History of U.S. Trade Policy”

Douglas Irwin argues that this is an opportune moment to reassess US trade policy. President Trump called himself a ‘tariff man’ and saw trade as a win-lose, zero-sum proposition. After four years, what have we learned and what path will the Biden administration pursue? In an op-ed piece in The Wall Street Journal, Dr. Irwin says that traditional economic truths still have value.

This event is for trade practitioners who need:

An understanding of enduring trade truths
A historic perspective of US trade policy and the prospects for different outcomes in a Biden administration
An understanding of the future of tariffs and bilateral deals under the leadership of incoming USTR Tai
Practical insight for dealing with US Customs and Border Protection in the years ahead
Actionable advice on the future of trade relations with China, the WTO, TPP, and much more
