No Trade Is Free: Changing Course, Taking on China, and Helping America's Workers

By Robert Lighthizer

Categories: Business & Money, Politics & Social Sciences

Robert Lighthizer, U.S. Trade Representative in the first Trump administration, combines political memoir, history and policy analysis to explain how the administration challenged the trade establishment and directly confronted China's trade policy. Lighthizer argues that decades of one-sided free trade closed factories and held down wages, and he makes the case for a worker-focused trade policy. He sketches leaders including Donald Trump, Xi Jinping, Nancy Pelosi and Andrés Manuel López Obrador, and explains why leverage is the key to negotiation.
