Abstract

To maintain liberal trade and advance the agenda for more open trade, economic policy must prevent external shocks from becoming crises - and protection must remain uniform among sectors. Trade policymaking institutions must be able to deal with changes in political equilibrium resulting from external shocks or the lobbying power of groups seeking exceptions from uniform protection.
