Corporate Strategy and Political Economy in a World Free of Dumping.  13 September 2005. Published in the Journal of Law and Economics of International Trade.

Abstract

Over the last twenty years many countries have enacted and begun using antidumping legislation. These laws seek, amongst other goals, to deter injurious dumping. In this paper I describe some of the consequences for corporate decision-making and for the political economy of reforms if antidumping laws succeed in deterring dumping in the first place. Understanding these potential consequences might shed light on the desirability of end point of the antidumping journey that so many World Trade Organization members (WTO) are currently embarked on.
