Introduction: Perspectives On Antidumping Law And Policy, John J. Jackson
Introduction: Perspectives On Antidumping Law And Policy, John J. Jackson
Michigan Journal of International Law
The successful dismantling of most high tariffs of the noncommunist industrialized world over the last thirty years has revealed other trade measures which previously posed relatively little risk to the flow of trade. One such measure is "antidumping duties," which each year seems to grow more prominent as a cause of tension between trading nations. Although in recent months front-page news stories have focused considerable attention on the problems of dumping and the response of antidumping duties, it is probably safe to assume that the general public, and even most laymen, have little understanding of the practice and concept of …

The Japanese antidumping law neither works nor is it practiced. Until very recently, it has been a case of managed economy, with extensive government-business interaction obviating the need to use antidumping laws.

It was a reaction to trade problems perceived in the years during and after World War I. The related countervailing duty law harks back to an even earlier era. Since their enactment we have tinkered with each. Administration of both statutes has been surrounded by extensive regulations and a body of unwritten practice. But solving the trade problems of today-if that is what we are doing-with this elaborate legal corpus will not necessarily provide us with a sensible guide to the …

The "Fast-Track" Procedure: Problems Of Implementation, David N. Wall
Michigan Journal of International Law
The Trade Act of 1974 represented the most significant reformulation of United States international economic policy since the Trade Agreements Act of 1934. Responding to criticism from several quarters, Congress included in the Act major additions to the laws dealing with unfair foreign trade practices. In particular, the Act contained several measures intended to expedite the processing of antidumping complaints. One of these measures, the so-called "fast-track" provision, created a potentially powerful administrative mechanism to permit the summary dismissal of clearly unmeritorious complaints. Unfortunately, implementation of this amendment has suffered from a lack of legislative guidance, and it is not …
