| Optimal Tariffs - Economics Dictionary of Arguments | |||
| Optimal tariffs: Optimal tariffs are import taxes set by a country to maximize its own economic welfare. By exploiting its market power, a country can lower the world price of imports, improving its terms of trade. However, this can lead to trade wars and retaliation, reducing global efficiency and cooperation. See also Tariffs, International trade, Trade policy, Strategic trade policy._____________Annotation: The above characterizations of concepts are neither definitions nor exhausting presentations of problems related to them.
