Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book aims to examine the use of antidumping laws as “temporary adjustment” safety valves. That is, domestic industries suddenly exposed to international competition need some measures to help them cope with the new market conditions. The book is divided into six chapters: The introductory chapter first examines the definition of dumping and antidumping. it then evaluates antidumping regulation both at the national and WTO level; The second chapter reviews current WTO antidumping law; The third and fourth chapters look at the antidumping experience of two developing countries: Egypt and India. The fifth chapter examines how current competition law deals with the practice of dumping. Accordingly, price discrimination law and predatory pricing law of both major competition law jurisdictions, the US and the EU are examined. This chapter aims to answer the question of whether competition law in its current form can replace antidumping law; and Finally, the sixth chapter looks at economies of scale as barriers to effective competition.
Book Synopsis Adverse Effect of Antidumping Laws on Developing Countries by : Fotini Mastroianni
Download or read book Adverse Effect of Antidumping Laws on Developing Countries written by Fotini Mastroianni and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2017-01-10 with total page 59 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bachelor Thesis from the year 2010 in the subject Economics - International Economic Relations, , course: Economics, language: English, abstract: An unfair trade practice, dumping, occurs when a company sells its products abroad at prices lower than the price of the market in which they are produced, or even below cost. This mainly happens because export firms may have an excess capacity, and want to have a larger market share in a foreign country against domestic products. This practice is internationally considered as a practice of unfair competition. Therefore, anti-dumping measures are imposed. The anti-dumping duty is independent of import duties and functions additionally to the common tariff practices. Many times, however, it may be the case that anti-dumping measures are imposed on certain products without having them previously dumped. This is more than dangerous. The unfair imposition of anti-dumping measures aims to strengthen the local industry against imported goods, which worsens protectionism worldwide . Recently, the U.S. and China were engaged in announcements of additional mutual anti-dumping measures. Within a very short time, the U.S. imposed high temporary tariffs on Chinese aluminium products and steel as well as some types of paper. China responded by imposing tough antidumping tariffs on U.S. imports of chicken and nylon in retaliation. In general, the confirmation of the existence of this illegal practice is extremely difficult and requires extensive timely research. Furthermore, it should also be investigated whether the particular industry has been harmed. In the present study, the framework of international trade and the various measures such as tariffs and quotas will be presented to understand better the international economic environment. Dumping and antidumping measures will be examined both on the financial side but also on the legal side. Finally, the effect of antidumping measures to developing countries will be further studied.
Book Synopsis The Anti-Dumping Agreement and Developing Countries by : Aradhna Aggarwal
Download or read book The Anti-Dumping Agreement and Developing Countries written by Aradhna Aggarwal and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2006-10-20 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the era of globalization, trade policy has become a key development tool and expanding exports a major policy objective for developing countries. However, pressures for protectionism are threatening to reverse the gains. The surge of anti-dumping practices in the 1990s in many countries have triggered an intense debate on the anti-dumping agreement and its implementation. This volume analyses the importance of anti-dumping from a developing country's perspective. The author investigates the use of anti-dumping in a comparative framework and reviews the genesis and evolution of the Agreement and its legal provisions. She further discusses the economic and non-economic justifications of anti-dumping use and empirically analyses the macro-economic factors motivating countries to use anti-dumping. Finally she examines the wide-ranging proposals to reform the WTO anti-dumping code. The analysis brings out a bias against developing countries and stresses the need for fundamental reform of current anti-dumping rules. The author also reflects on plausible approaches to refine existing provisions and explores the possibility of reform by including a Public Interest Test. She suggests updating the special and differential treatment provisions to remedy existing imbalances.

Book Synopsis Anti-dumping Laws and Practices of the New Users by : Junji Nakagawa
Download or read book Anti-dumping Laws and Practices of the New Users written by Junji Nakagawa and published by Cameron May. This book was released on 2007 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More and more members of the WTO are using anti-dumping (AD) measures as an effective tool for protecting domestic industries facing competition with foreign products. In contrast to the 'big four' (US, EC, Canada and Australia), which have been using AD measures frequently since the GATT era, many of the new users established their AD regimes and began to use them after the establishment of the WTO. Why are there more and more new users? How are they applying AD measures? Do they comply with the rules of the WTO Anti- Dumping Agreement? What are their specific characteristics in the handling of AD cases? What should exporters and practitioners do to prepare for AD investigations by the new users? Based on extensive analyses of primary materials and hearings from practitioners and AD authorities, this book provides detailed and updated information to answer these questions on the following new users: China, Chinese Taipei, Korea, Thailand, India, South Africa, Mexico, Argentina, and Brazil.
Book Synopsis Anti-Dumping Regulations and Practice in Nigeria by : Violet Aigbokhaevbo
Download or read book Anti-Dumping Regulations and Practice in Nigeria written by Violet Aigbokhaevbo and published by African Books Collective. This book was released on 2022-09-16 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an attempt to examine the WTO/GATT anti-dumping regulations within the ambit of the peculiar developmental circumstances of developing countries with Nigeria in perspective. A combination of descriptive analysis and deductions are utilised with reference to the Nigerian experience, as a developing country seeking relevance in the global trading system where non-conforming states are regarded as pariahs. The non-availability of industries to cater for the needs of their populaces has rendered these countries viable global dumping ground for fake, substandard and adulterated products. The conclusion here that as far as developing countries are concerned, anti-dumping regulations as provided by GATT in Nigeria is akin to providing shoes for a man with no feet.
Book Synopsis Anti-dumping and Countervailing Action by : Philip Bentley
Download or read book Anti-dumping and Countervailing Action written by Philip Bentley and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2007-01-01 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ''. . . a fine attempt to shed light on the legal rules that make antidumping and countervailing duty so controversial. Bentley, and experienced trade lawyer, and Silberston, a long-time professor of economics at Imperial College-London, team up to translate arcane and often incomprehensible legal rules into common sense language. Their book not a "how to" manual of how cases proceed, but rather a nontechnical review of many obscure but crucial concepts. The book''s appeal is considerably widened by their frequent discussion on whether the rules make economic sense. . . . the approach taken in the book enlightens policymakers, practitioners, and academics on the perverse nature of antidumping and countervailing duty laws. . . . a fine addition to the bookshelf of any scholar interested in studying trade agreements and administered protection.'' Thomas J. Prusa, Journal of Economic Literature ''Philip Bentley and Aubrey Silberston provide a balanced treatment of a complex area of trade law taking action against dumped or subsidized exports. They document in an accessible manner the many problems associated with current rules and practice and provide a practical set of recommendations to improve the administration of trade law in these areas.'' Bernard Hoekman, Development Research Group, The World Bank ''Written by a lawyer and an economist, both of whom have long experience and deep knowledge equally of theory and practice, this book offers a unique, objective and dispassionate analysis of anti-dumping and countervailing action from various aspects, not only what it is and how it is applied but also its problems and ambiguities not least in a globalised and interdependent world where it is easy to do as much damage to one''s own producers and consumers as to the apparent transgressor. Finally, some thoughts are offered as to what might be done to introduce greater rigour and discipline and to resolve the principal defects. A comprehensive guide to and review of this area of trade policy has long been needed; here it is. Trade policy practitioners, lawyers, students, and above all the negotiators should read it. Bentley and Silberston will be the standard work for some time to come.'' Anthony Hutton, formerly Director-General for Trade Policy in the Department of Trade and Industry, London, UK ''With their book Anti-Dumping and Countervailing Action Philip Bentley and Aubrey Silberston provide an eminent addition to the legal and economic literature on the subject of the appropriate use of anti-dumping and countervailing duties. Rather than offering a nuts and bolts how to book, the authors deliver a succinct and relatively non-technical overview of substantive concepts and problems inherent in the use of these commercial defence instruments that will appeal to experts and non-experts alike. While the book focuses on the WTO Anti-Dumping Agreement and its implementation in the EU and the United States, it offers valuable lessons for administrators and practitioners in other user countries also. One may not agree with all elements of their analysis I, for one, would certainly not agree with their conclusion that pre-Uruguay Round zeroing made legal and economic sense but their inter-disciplinary approach is thought-provoking and refreshing as well as timely in the middle of the EU reflection on the use of the anti-dumping instrument that EU Trade Commissioner Mandelson has launched.'' Edwin Vermulst, partner Vermulst, Verhaeghe & Graafsma, Brussels, Belgium; editor Journal of World Trade and Global Trade and Customs Journal; author of the WTO Anti-Dumping Agreement (OUP 2006) ''This book is an excellent study in depth of the practical problems that arise for regulatory authorities in seeking to apply the international rules, as laid down in the various WTO agreements, when requests for anti-dumping or countervailing measures have been received from industry. It offers not only an analysis of the difficult choices awaiting the practitioner but also a rigorous examination of the economic sense, if any, behind the practices that have evolved in recent years. On several occasions this sense is found to be wanting, and the authors make some thought provoking points and recommendations for change. Highly recommended for students and practitioners alike.'' Roderick Abbott, former deputy Director General at DG Trade in the EC Commission, and later deputy DG at the WTO This book, written by a lawyer and an economist both of whom have worked extensively in the field of international trade, offers a challenging and thought-provoking consideration of actions against dumping and export subsidies. Unlike many books in the field which simply set out the relevant international agreements and discuss their interpretation by various regulatory authorities, this book identifies numerous contradictions found in existing law and practice. Many of which, the authors argue, defy economic as well as legal logic. In light of their analysis, the authors propose a number of changes to current law and practice. Whilst they are under no illusion of the likelihood that such changes will occur in the relevant agreements in the near future, it is hoped that through compelling argument they can not only contribute to future debate, but also shape the way these issues are treated in practice. Providing a critical analysis of the commonly used trade measures against dumping and export subsidies, Anti-Dumping and Countervailing Action will be of international interest, especially to regulatory authorities, trade lawyers, trade economists and scholars and students in business school
Book Synopsis Antidumping in the Americas by : José Tavares de Araújo Júnior
Download or read book Antidumping in the Americas written by José Tavares de Araújo Júnior and published by United Nations Publications. This book was released on 2001 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Developed countries and a growing number of developing countries have increasingly relied on antidumping laws to provide import relief to particular economic sectors. As practiced today, however, antidumping also entails heavy costs, for the foreign firms targeted by this policy and for consumers in the country applying antidumping legislation. The publication argues that the debate on antidumping should be viewed taking into account the negotiations to create the Free Trade Areas of the Americas (FTAA) as well as the costs and benefits of all import relief measures, including safeguards.

This book was released on 2008-01-01 with total page 522 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The WTO Secretariat reports that during the period from 1995 to June 30, 2007 WTO members initiated 3097 anti-dumping investigations. Of these, 474 were put forward by India, which made it the largest user of this measure among WTO Members. The traditional argument of developing countries was that loopholes or absence of clear definitions in the anti-dumping rules have increased the possibility of abuses and discretionary practices against them. Now, many developing countries like India have become frequent users of this measure. For a better understanding of the various provisions of the WTO's Anti-dumping Agreement (ADA) a critical investigation of the resulting jurisprudence is a necessity. To that end, this timely work has a fivefold aim: and• To explore the jurisprudence that has emerged around the anti-dumping regime and how it affected developing countries; and• To assess how effectively and to what extent the WTO's Dispute Settlement Body (DSB) is able to analyze the violations of ADA provisions; and• To examine domestic compliance with DSB decisions; and• To study the Indian cases which come before the nation's Customs, Excise andamp; Sales Tax Appellate Tribunal, various High Courts and the Supreme Court of India; and and• To offer recommendations for the improvement of the anti-dumping regime from a developing country perspective.
Book Synopsis Circumvention and Anti-circumvention Measures by : Yanning Yu
Download or read book Circumvention and Anti-circumvention Measures written by Yanning Yu and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2008-01-01 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The unfair trade practice of dumping has been regulated for many years. Dumping distorts competition by selling exports at exceedingly low prices in foreign markets. Over the years, anti-dumping measures designed to counter dumping through the imposition of duties have become the most effective and popular way employed to protect domestic industries under threat. The 1980s, however, ushered in a counter measure: circumvention. As a means of avoiding anti-dumping duties, circumvention threatens the effectiveness of the anti-dumping system by undermining the protection provided for domestic industries. In response, anti-circumvention measures have been designed and implemented to combat those activities. This is the first book to offer a detailed analysis of this significant issue in anti-dumping practice.
Download or read book Anti-dumping written by Bibek Debroy and published by Academic Foundation. This book was released on 2007 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The eight major sections in this volume focus on the increasing use of anti-dumping measures in a wide range of sectors by both developed and developing countries. In recent years, tariff reforms, the use of the provision in intra-developing country trade, and analysis of anti-dumping cases lodged at the WTO dispute settlement body indicate, the guide explains, a policy substitution to protect domestic industries.
