Who really pays for a tariff?

Tariffs are one of the most talked-about and least understood tools in economics. This cursus builds the whole picture from the mechanism up: who actually pays a tariff and how the cost splits, why governments impose them despite the cost, how a single tariff can spiral into a trade war, and the global rulebook that keeps trade wars rare. Objective, evergreen, grounded in named research, no slogans.
