by Aradhna Aggarwal
EPUB
Description
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.
