| Abstract: | Cultural protectionism reflects one of the growing list of tensions that arise as trends toward marketization around the globe affect the sovereignty of the nation state. Deference to the principles of comparative advantage demands the reduction of barriers not associated with direct costs of production and distribution. As tariffs, quotas, import licensing, and other long visible trade barriers come down, other concerns become more obvious. Businesses and nations must navigate a course between the demands for market access and concerns for deeply held cultural sensitivities. |
