The Tariff Policy of Rhodesia, 1899-1963

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to outline, in a more convenient form than is at present available, the development of Rhodesian tariff policy from the beginning of the century to the end of the Federal period. It is hoped to publish a paper on subsequent developments at a later date. A detailed evaluation of the policies followed is outside the deliberately limited scope of this paper, but such an evaluation would be of great value if and when the necessary information can be obtained.
