Alexander Hamilton and the Birth of US Industrial Policy
==========

Alexander Hamilton, known as an architect of the federal system, was also an early advocate for state-directed investment to build a domestic manufacturing industry. This lesser-known aspect of his vision is explored in an interview with Christian Parenti, a professor at John Jay College and author of Radical Hamilton: Economic Lessons from a Misunderstood Founder. The interview discusses the economic context in which Hamilton developed this vision and its relevance to current efforts to build domestic manufacturing capacity in the US.
