Leibowitz on Trade: Section 301, China, and Should the Tariffs Stay or Go?

Tariffs on China have been controversial from the beginning. Passions run high, and it’s sometimes hard to find a middle ground on policy matters concerning China.

The tariffs at issue are those imposed on Chinese goods under Section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended. Over the next few months, the Biden administration has big decisions to make on these tariffs. Should they be kept on all products or not? Should they be increased, reduced, or scrapped altogether?
