Protectionism

"Not to be confused with Autocracy and  Autarchism"

Protectionism, also known as Economic Nationalism or the fundamentalist version called  Autarky (closed economy), is an economic ideology which believes that an economy of a nation should be protected against foreign influence for reasons that vary depending on who you ask.

Neomercantilism is a school of international economic thought which espouses an export-orientated economy, with subsidies and regulations favoring national business and larger corporate entities, over foreign competition.

This model of trade became popular in the United States during the 1970's, when American firms were suffering from competition from the Japanese industry.

Examples of countries with an export-orientated economic model include:
