✦ Synopsis

In his evaluation of my (1992) empirical investigation of tariff protection in Israel, Hillman (1992) raises several important issues and in addressing them he provides an insightful description of the unique aspects of the institutional setting in Israel.

I wish, however, to take issue with several of Hillman's points.
