In collaboration with Université Laval

In this period of insecurity and economic tensions, some eminent political leaders believe that democratic trading nations must lean into economic partnerships with States who share their interests and values. Is friend-shoring necessary today? Have Free trade and Secure trade become conflicting aims? Is friend-shoring still a good policy? Is it consistent with international trade law? What are the benefits and the perils of friend-shoring?
