Tariffs are commonly described as tools of protection, policies designed to defend domestic industries, preserve jobs, and restore economic balance. In practice, they rarely deliver these outcomes.

Tariffs and the Illusion of Control examines why tariff regimes persist despite their economic costs. The answer, this book argues, lies not in efficiency or growth, but in governance. Tariffs function less as economic solutions and more as instruments of reassurance, offering visible action in response to complex and disruptive change.

Through historical analysis and systems thinking, the book shows how tariffs distort price signals, reorganize supply chains around constraint rather than capability, weaken innovation, and gradually erode competitiveness. Over time, protection transforms from a temporary response into a structural condition, one that delays adjustment, obscures feedback, and replaces learning with management.

Rather than asking whether tariffs work in theory, this book focuses on what they do in practice. It traces how policies intended to assert control instead produce drift, institutional lock in, and the illusion of stability.

Clear, analytical, and unsentimental, Tariffs and the Illusion of Control reframes trade policy as a window into modern governance, revealing how states respond to uncertainty, how economic myths persist, and why the costs of protection are rarely paid where they are imposed.
