,Economics 2
Name 3 reasons a country could take protectionist measures.
1. Unfair competition: due to (poor) regulations competitors are able to produce cheaper.
2. Noneconomic reasons/independence: to ensure the country’s production of essential products is
on par. E.g. when war breaks out.
3. Infant industries: when an industry is still very young in a country it needs some time to develop
and become able to compete with international competitors.
Name 5 protectionist measures.
1. Tariffs: tariffs on imported goods in order to make them more expensive, making the national
products more attractive.
2. Import quota: setting a limit for the import of certain goods into the country. At a limit of 0 this is
called an embargo.
3. Export subsidies: governmental subsidies in order to assist the national company in its competition
abroad.
4. Voluntary export restraints: a country can limit its own export voluntarily in order to keep another
country from setting even harsher protectionist measures.
5. Product regulations: specific requirements set on products within the country. This way you can
give your national company’s an advantage, as the international ones must alter their products
according to the regulations.

1. Free trade: abolishing trade restrictions and regulations between the countries of the agreement.

2. Customs union: abolishing of trade restrictions and regulations between the countries of the
agreement, however, all take up the same rules against other countries.
3. Common market: same as above, but also free movement of labor and capital. Labor meaning they
will acknowledge diploma’s and harmonize rules. Capital meaning they will abolish international
