Question

how did other nations respond to the smoot - hawley tariff act? by lowering the prices on their exports to undermine american shipping by levying their own tariffs and shutting down international trade by appealing to the u.s. with reduced market prices and trade alliances

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

The Smoot - Hawley Tariff Act was a protectionist trade policy. Other nations responded in a retaliatory manner. Lowering export prices to undermine shipping is not a typical response to tariffs. Appealing with reduced prices and trade alliances is also not in line with historical responses. The common response to such tariffs is retaliatory tariffs, which can lead to a shutdown of international trade as seen in the trade wars of the 1930s.

Answer:

by levying their own tariffs and shutting down international trade
