Bimetallism and Protection Inseparable is a book written by Wharton Barker in 1896. The book discusses the relationship between bimetallism and protectionism, arguing that the two are inseparable. Bimetallism refers to the use of two metals, typically gold and silver, as a standard for currency. Protectionism refers to government policies that protect domestic industries from foreign competition through tariffs and other measures. Barker argues that bimetallism is necessary for protectionism to be effective, as a stable currency is needed to support domestic industries. He also argues that bimetallism is important for international trade, as it allows for a more stable exchange rate between countries. The book provides a historical overview of bimetallism and protectionism, tracing their development in Europe and the United States. Barker also examines contemporary economic theories and policies related to these issues. Overall, Bimetallism and Protection Inseparable is a significant work in the history of economic thought, providing insights into the debates surrounding currency and trade policies in the late 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
