Abstract
A continuing world-wide weakness in economic growth and large numbers of unemployed tempt several countries to put up trade barriers in order to protect their economy from foreign competition. The problem of protectionism becomes particularly relevant in the light of a world economic summit meeting where it is one of the leading discussion points.
The papers and contributions are published separately as a supplement to the periodical Zeitschrift für Unternehmensgeschichte, Beiheft 37, edited by Hans Pohl, Franz Steiner Verlag, Stuttgart 1985
