This lesson focuses on categorizing trade barriers in the United States by examining three key types: tariffs, quotas, and embargoes. Through teacher-led discussions and research activities, students will learn about government involvement in international trade, including how tariffs can act as revenue sources or protective measures for domestic industries. Additionally, students will explore quotas that limit imports and embargoes that impose total trade bans. By documenting at least two examples of each barrier, students will gain insight into the complexities of trade regulations and their implications.
