Scott Lincicome on the trade war

What have been the economic costs of the trade conflict between America and China? Who has borne these costs? How will the struggle end? And how acceptable was the status quo before President Trump initiated this trade war? To unpack these questions, I’m delighted to be joined by Scott Lincicome. Scott Lincicome is an international trade attorney with experience in trade litigation before the Department of Commerce, the US International Trade Commission, the US Court of International Trade, the European Commission and the World Trade Organization’s Dispute Settlement Body. He has also advised private sector clients on multilateral trade deals and policies. Scott is a Visiting Lecturer at Duke University as well as an adjunct scholar at the Cato Institute where he researches trade policy.
