This paper examines the costs of trade protection in the South African economy. After a review of the data and literature on South Africa’s trade policy as a whole, including tariff and non-tariff barriers to trade, these policy measures are related to the channels identified, and the latest South African industrial and trade policy initiatives are examined in the light of the analysis. Finally, policy options are discussed against the background of the costs of protection and the trade and industrial policy initiatives.
