| Abstract | Friedrich List lived in the United States from 1825 to 1835, a time of much heated debate between free traders and protectionists inside and outside Congress on the "American system," a set of bills combining tariff protection, encouragement of manufactures, a national bank, and the promotion of internal improvements. List's talents were discovered by the protectionists and he became a major participant in the debate. Upon his return to Germany, List developed his famous and controversial national system of political economy that had a lasting and widespread influence. His work shaped developmental theory internationally and his Nationales System became a classic in the field of economic nationalism. The first part of the article introduces the concept of economic nationalism and gives a theoretical background. The second part discusses List's formative writings and activities during his United States stay. |
