# Cato University 2018: The Economics of Trade and the Politics of International Trade 

From [Cato University: College of Economics](https://www.cato.org/cato-university/college-economics-2018)

Cato University’s College of Economics is based on the conviction that economics is a way of thinking, a tool for decision-making, and a basis for action. It’s the necessary foundation for understanding government, business, and society. Discussions from top economics scholars are designed to solidify your expertise on basic economic principles, and then help you apply those tools to today’s most pressing issues.
