Regulacje i praktyka międzynarodowej polityki celnej

The first difficulty in liberalization agricultural trade stemmed from his position as the United States and the application of ny quantitative restriction. But then the main reason for the exclusion of agriculture from the negotiations was the first position of the EWG, and then of the European communities. Community countries already in the mid-sixties introduced protectionist common agricultural policy (CAP: Common Agricultural Policy). Generally speaking, liberal trade policy brings benefits in comparison with protectionism. This was reflected in the main principles of the international trade policy in the framework of the WTO and the EU. Also the introduction and opening of the Polish economy was made possible thanks to the progressive liberalization of this policy. The most important were tariff reductions resulting from the agreements of the WTO and of the Europe agreement with the EU.
