编者按:经济萧条从来就是贸易保护主义孳生的温床。当前世界各地、特别是某些西方经济大国正在发生的一些事态已经令人感到了全球贸易保护主义风潮兴起的瑟瑟寒意。“意大利人吃意大利食品”运动已从小城卢卡蔓延到了米兰等意大利大城市,美国众议院通过了《2009美国复苏与再投资议案》设立“购买美国货”(BuyAmerican)条款等等。这不禁让人产生疑问,全球化背景下,贸易保护主义为什 Editor’s Note: A recession has always been a breeding ground for trade protectionism. What is happening now in all parts of the world, especially in some western economic powers, has made people feel the chill of the rise of the global trade protectionism. “Italy eat Italian food ” campaign has spread from the town of Luca to Milan and other Italian cities, the US House of Representatives passed the “2009 American Recovery and Reinvestment Proposal” the establishment of “BuyAmerican ” clause and so on . This can not help but make people wonder why trade protectionism is under the background of globalization
