			In a democracy, economic performance is often considered an essential factor in determining the success or popularity of a government. This is because economic performance can affect the well-being of citizens and the overall prosperity of a society.

			Trade agreements can be seen as signals of a government's commitment to promoting the general welfare of its citizens, as they can affect the access of consumers to foreign goods and services and the competitiveness of domestic industries. For example, trade agreements that liberalise trade and promote free trade can benefit consumers by increasing access to lower-priced goods and services and increasing competition, leading to lower prices and better-quality products. However, at the same time, trade agreements can also negatively impact certain industries and workers, as they may be exposed to increased competition from foreign firms.

			Overall, the effects of trade agreements on economic performance can be complex and depend on a range of factors, including the agreement's specific terms, the country's economic circumstances, and the different stakeholders' views. Therefore, governments must carefully consider these factors when negotiating and implementing trade agreements to promote the general welfare of their citizens.

			The electoral system can influence how political organisation occurs within a society, including the extent to which it is based on sectoral or class lines.

			In majoritarian electoral systems, such as first-past-the-post systems, political parties tend to focus on winning a majority of votes in a particular geographic area, such as a district or a state. As a result, political organisations may be more likely to occur along sectoral or industry lines, as parties may seek to appeal to voters with similar economic interests.

			In proportional electoral systems, such as party-list systems, parties are awarded seats in proportion to the number of votes they receive. This can encourage the formation of broader, ideologically-based parties that represent a range of economic interests. As a result, political organisation may be more likely to occur along class lines, with parties representing the interests of different economic groups within society.

			Overall, the electoral system can shape how political parties and organisations form and prioritise issues. Therefore, it is crucial to consider the specific characteristics of the electoral system when evaluating the potential impacts of trade policy on different groups within a society.

			Veto players are political actors with the power to block or veto policy changes. In a political system with fewer veto players, it may be easier for policymakers to change tariffs or other trade policies, as fewer actors can block these changes.

			For example, suppose a country has a centralised decision-making process with a single executive branch or a small group of key decision-makers. In that case, it may be easier for policymakers to change tariffs or other trade policies without facing significant opposition. On the other hand, if a country has a more decentralised decision-making process, with multiple veto players who can block policy changes, it may be more difficult for policymakers to change tariffs or other trade policies.

			It is important to note that the number of veto players is just one factor that can affect the ease of policy change and other factors, such as the strength of interest groups, the extent of public support for the policy change, and the overall political environment, can also play a role. It is, therefore, essential to consider the specific characteristics of a country's political system when evaluating the potential impacts of trade policy on different groups within a society.

	Countries are not inherently mercantilist. Mercantilism is an economic theory that advocates for a country to increase its wealth and power by maximizing exports and minimizing imports through trade barriers and other protectionist measures. While some countries may adopt mercantilist policies in order to promote their economic interests, other countries may take a more liberal approach to trade and support free trade and globalization. The choice of trade policy can depend on various factors, including a country's economic circumstances, political ideology, and strategic interests. Additionally, it is important to note that trade policy is just one aspect of a country's economic and foreign policy and is not the only determinant of a country's wealth and power. Other factors, such as a country's natural resources, technological capabilities, and human capital, can also play a role in shaping its economic success.		Countries are not inherently mercantilist.

	Trade policy can significantly impact the economic well-being of different groups within a society, and the distributional effects of trade can depend on a range of factors, including factor endowment and factor mobility. Factor endowment refers to a country's relative abundance of the factors of production, such as labour and capital, that are used to produce goods and services. In contrast, factor mobility refers to the ease with which these factors can move between industries or countries. The distributional effects of trade may depend on the relative abundance of different factors of production in a country and the degree of factor mobility, as well as other economic and social factors. Therefore, it is important to consider these factors when evaluating the potential impacts of trade policy on different groups within a society.

			Trade can significantly affect domestic politics, as it can affect the economic well-being of different groups within a society. Trade policy can be a divisive issue, with different social groups having different views on the benefits and costs of trade liberalization and protectionism.

			For example, trade liberalization may lead to increased access to foreign goods and services, which can benefit consumers by lowering prices. But, at the same time, trade liberalization may lead to job loss or wage stagnation in certain industries, harming workers and their families. This can create economic disparities and lead to social tensions, which political candidates with extreme views on either side of the political spectrum may exploit.

			Trade opening, such as the influx of Chinese imports following the "China shock" (a term used to describe the rapid increase in Chinese imports to the US in the late 1990s and early 2000s), may lead to a rise in political polarization and the emergence of political candidates with extreme views on both sides of the political spectrum.

			Trade liberalization and globalization can have different impacts on different groups within a society, depending on the relative abundance of the factors of production (such as labour and capital) used in various industries. For example, in a country where labour is relatively abundant and capital is relatively scarce, trade liberalization may lead to higher wages for workers in the importing sector and lower wages for workers in the exporting sector. This can create economic disparities and lead to social tensions, which political candidates with extreme views on either side of the political spectrum may exploit.
