Fortress Economics

Fortress Economics is a concept where a nation's economic policy focuses on protecting its own industries, resources, and markets from outside competition. It emphasizes self-sufficiency and safeguarding domestic businesses through tariffs, trade barriers, and strategic reserves. This approach aims to reduce dependency on foreign economies, maintain national security, and preserve local employment. While it can shield a country's economy in times of global instability, it may also lead to reduced competition, higher prices, and less innovation. Ultimately, Fortress Economics prioritizes national resilience and sovereignty over open-market dynamics.
