Trump’s Tariff Policy as a Catalyst of Deglobalization

Author(s) Vikash Kumar
Country India
Abstract Donald Trump’s tariff policy marked one of the most significant departures from the post–Cold War era of liberal economic globalization. Through aggressive use of unilateral trade actions—especially Section 232 tariffs on steel and aluminum and Section 301 tariffs targeting more than $300 billion in Chinese goods—the Trump administration disrupted long-standing supply chains, provoked retaliation from major trading partners, and accelerated a structural shift toward deglobalization. This paper examines the historical context of Trump’s protectionist turn, evaluates the economic consequences for U.S. consumers and industries, analyzes the global reactions from allies and rivals, and studies the broader implications for international trade architecture. The study argues that Trump’s tariff regime acted as a catalyst for fragmentation of global production networks, reshoring and nearshoring trends, and heightened geopolitical competition in trade policy. While globalization persists in modified forms, Trump’s tariffs have left a lasting imprint on global economic governance and set new precedents for future U.S. trade strategies.
