FEATURED PUBLICATION:
Trade Skirmish Paper

Edward (Ned) Hill, PhD, professor of Economic Development at the John Glenn College of Public Affairs and in the City and Regional Planning program of The Ohio State University and a faculty member of the Ohio Manufacturing Institute and Fran Stewart, senior research associate at The Ohio State University’s John Glenn College of Public Affairs and the Ohio Manufacturing Institute, co-authored this research report. 

 

The Economic Impact of the Trade Skirmish of 2018 on the Nation and Ohio

Ohio is front and center in the trade conflict sparked by the federal government’s initiation of tariffs in 2018 to protect the U.S. steel and aluminum industries. Ohio  [The Economic Impact of the Trade Skirmish of 2018 on the Nation and Ohio] is also a state with much at risk if national security trade protection is extended to the motor vehicle assembly and parts industries.

We have two objectives for this public policy briefing. The first is to document and clarify the moves and counter-moves in 2018’s international trade fight. The second is to discuss the economic impacts of the trade skirmish on the nation in general and Ohio in particular.
