Three Simple Principles of Trade Policy Douglas A. Irwin
Although not commonly recognized as such, economic logic tells us and experience demonstrates that a tax on imports commensurately creates a tax on exports; that consumers comprise not only households, but busineses, that trade imbalances reflect capitalflows between countries.

The Pullman Case: The Clash of Labor and Capital in Industrial America (Landmark Law Cases & American Society) David Ray Papke
When the American Railway Union went on strike against the Pullman Palace Car Company in 1894, it set into motion a chain of events whose repercussions are still felt today. The strike pitted America's largest industrial union against twenty-four railroads, paralyzed rail traffic in half the country, and in the end was broken up by federal troops and suppressed by the courts, with union leader Eugene Debs incarcerated. But behind the Pullman case lay a conflict of ideologies at a watershed time in our nation's history. David Ray Papke reexamines the events and personalities surrounding the 1894 strike, related proceedings in the Chicago trial courts, and the 1895 Supreme Court decision, In re Debs , which set important standards for labor injunctions. He shows how the Court, by upholding Debs's contempt citation, dealt fatal blows to broad-based unionism in the nation's most important industry and to any hope for a more evenhanded form of judicial involvement in labor......

The Impact of Geographic Deregulation on the American Banking Industr Ann B. Matasar, Joseph N. Heiney
With the passage of the Riegle-Neal Interstate Banking and Branching Efficiency Act in 1994, some Americans celebrated the dawn of a new banking era. This law represented the first revision of the Glass-Steagall Act of 1933. In the intervening sixty years, the U.S. banking industry had undergone dramatic changes, both domestically and internationally, and yet the laws associated with banking remained fixed and intransigent. The new legislation represented a rapid realignment of American banking laws withsocietal norms; as such, it generated confusion and uncertainty for many bankers and their constituents, for example, stockholders, customers, and employees. Matasar and Heiney examine public data since 1994 in an effort to fully apprise scholars and practitioners of the changes that have irrevocably altered the landscape of American banking....
