Abstract
In over 200 years of the history of the United States, tariffs have been a vital aspect of the public policy and source of revenue for the U.S. government, which has led to the implementation of various trade and tariff policies from protectionism in the prewar years to trade liberalization in the immediate aftermath of World War II.
