Protectionism

Agree

No

Although protectionism is primarily an economic policy focused on safeguarding domestic industries from international competition, it indirectly supports the idea of bolstering domestic well-being, which can include social policies like affirmative action. Affirmative action aims to address historical inequalities and ensure a diverse workforce, which could be seen as strengthening the domestic workforce from a holistic perspective. However, since protectionism does not directly deal with social policies, the agreement would not be strongly positive.

Disagree

Yes

Protectionism as an economic ideology focuses on shielding a country's domestic industries from foreign competition through tariffs, quotas, and other trade barriers. While it doesn't directly address affirmative action, protectionism emphasizes national interest and domestic priorities. Eliminating affirmative action requirements could be seen as contrary to the protectionist ethos of supporting domestic workers and industries by potentially reducing opportunities for historically marginalized groups within the country. However, the connection is indirect, as protectionism primarily concerns economic policy rather than social policy.
