The Pattern of Antidumping and Other Types of Contingent Protection
Many of the major economies in the
multilateral, rules-based trading system find themselves in
a situation in which their applied tariff rates are quite
close to the tariff binding levels that form their legal
commitments at the World Trade Organization (WTO). This
implies that they cannot simply raise applied tariff rates
to respond to domestic industry demands for additional trade
barriers to protect them from imports. One of the
fundamental and potentially WTO-legal ways in which national
governments can respond to domestic industry calls for
additional protection from imports is by resorting to trade
'remedy' policy instruments such as antidumping,
safeguards, and countervailing duty (anti-subsidy) policies.
This note, which describes newly collected data made
available through the World Bank-sponsored global
antidumping database, reports on the combined use of such
policies, comprehensively collected across the major WTO
member economies.
