Free Trade As An Extremist Ideology: The Case Of Nafta, Robert W. Benson
Free Trade As An Extremist Ideology: The Case Of Nafta, Robert W. Benson
Seattle University Law Review
This article purports that free tradism has become such a classic extremist ideology, just as, until recently, Marxism-Leninism was. Free tradism is fairly described as fitting the two criteria that characterize extremist ideologies: (1) their adherents are oblivious to cognitive dissonance contradicting their analyses, and (2) their adherents are willing to plunge themselves and others into great risks in the name of the ideology. This article adduces evidence in these two categories, using NAFTA as an example, analyzing concrete issues of trade theory, jobs, the environment, human rights, and democracy.
The World Trading System, Jagdish N. Bhagwati
The World Trading System, Jagdish N. Bhagwati
Faculty Scholarship
The Uruguay Round is closing this week after a marathon of negotiations stretching well over seven years; so the timing of this panel is exquisite, from my viewpoint. The ceremony, besides, is in Marrakech, an exotic place that sets our minds racing with thoughts of "Casablanca," Humphrey Bogart and Ingrid Bergman. Indeed, one can imagine a movie being made of this historic occasion that will transform the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GAIT) into the World Trade Organization (WTO), with Peter Ustinov cast as Peter Sutherland, the brilliant and portly new director general of the GAIT who finally brought …

Current Administration Of U.S. Antidumping And Countervailing Duty Laws: Implications For Prospective U.S.-Mexico Free Trade Talks, Stephen J. Powell, Craig R. Giesse, Craig L. Jackson
UF Law Faculty Publications
This Article discusses the current administration of the U.S. antidumping and countervailing duty laws in proceedings involving products from Mexico. Specifically, this Article begins by providing an overview of the basic statutory and regulatory provisions of the U.S. antidumping duty law, emphasizing the application of certain provisions in cases involving imports from Mexico. The Article then focuses its discussion upon recent developments in the U.S. countervailing duty law that have had a unique effect upon Mexican exporters. The Article continues by highlighting the antidumping and countervailing duty provisions of the recently concluded U.S.-Canada Free Trade Agreement (the "FTA" or "Agreement"). …

The open, multilateral trading system, centered on the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade, is currently at risk. The threat continues to come from familiar directions. But there are new problems too.
Hidden Agenda: The Expansion Of Product Scope In International Trade Proceedings, Timothy A. Harr
Hidden Agenda: The Expansion Of Product Scope In International Trade Proceedings, Timothy A. Harr
Michigan Journal of International Law
Part II of this Article examines current legal standards. It concludes that U.S. product scope rulings are nominally made pursuant to a set of objective legal/factual standards, but that because of the breadth of these standards, the Commerce Department has considerable discretion in making such decisions. Part III examines recent Commerce Department product scope rulings, which highlights a policy goal of prevention of evasion by foreign suppliers. The Department, which technically has no authority to expand the product scope and no formal authority to consider evasion, is uncomfortable with this current situation. This has caused the Administration to propose amendments …
Antitrust And International Know-How, Joel Davidow
Antitrust And International Know-How, Joel Davidow
Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law
It has been rumored that some political strategists would like to channel negotiations between developed countries of the North and developing countries of the South toward a trade-off allowing unrestricted access to Northern technology in exchange for decartelized supplies and prices for Southern raw materials. Each side would give away some of its heritage in exchange for improved access to the primary asset of the other. The negotiation shave faltered. In regard to many crucial issues they have never really begun, and in some respects the two sides have moved further apart over time. The classical economist sees no reason …
The Future Of Free Enterprise: Can It Survive Government Interventionism?, Baron Edmond De Rothschild
The Future Of Free Enterprise: Can It Survive Government Interventionism?, Baron Edmond De Rothschild
Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business
Free enterprise is the indispensable prerequisite for personal freedom, which I dare believe is still highly valued by most people. Hence, it is also the only economic system which is compatible with the democratic governments of Europe and America. However, the vitality of free enterprise is being threatened by government interventionism on both sides of the Atlantic. In Europe, this manifests itself in taxation, nationalization, restrictive policies, subsidization, labor laws, and the growth of the public sector. In America, we find much of the same, excepting nationalization. In order to restore vigor to the weakened private sector, we must return …
United States Foreign Trade Policy: A Delicate Balancing Act, Robert S. Strauss
United States Foreign Trade Policy: A Delicate Balancing Act, Robert S. Strauss
Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business
World trade today involves one-sixth of everything that is grown or manufactured on this planet. Translated into dollars, this amounted to a value last year of one trillion dollars. Of this amount, $150 billion belongs to American agriculture and industry. The enormous stake of the United States in maintaining and encouraging the growth of its exports has led the present Administration to chart an enlightened and courageous trade policy of promoting free and fair trade. Rather than take the politically expedient course of protectionism, this Administration has embarked on the course of lowering barriers to fair trade to ensure the …
The Retroactive Application Of The Antidumping Act Of 1921, Thomas E. Johnson
The Retroactive Application Of The Antidumping Act Of 1921, Thomas E. Johnson
Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business
In 1921, the United States Congress enacted the Antidumping Act which provides for the imposition of dumping duties on imports sold to United States merchants at prices below their fair value. The Act permits the assessment of dumping duties retroactively on merchandise imported up to one hundred and twenty days before a complaint of dumping has been filed with the Commissioner of Customs. Mr. Johnson examines the retroactive provisions of the Act and its regulations, the case law surrounding those provisions, and the constitutionality of the provisions. Against this background, he concludes that the retroactive application of the Act, particularly …
The Arab Economic Boycott Of Israel: The International Law Perspective, Preston L. Greene, Jr.
The Arab Economic Boycott Of Israel: The International Law Perspective, Preston L. Greene, Jr.
Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law
Most of the discussion about the Arab economic boycott of Israel has focused on its effect upon United States law. Even when the discussion centers on moral and ethical considerations, the focus remains on the United States. This limited perspective, however, merely reflects the vast global economic interests of the United States. Nonetheless, the extensive analysis of American law and practices has tended to obscure the importance of applicable international norms. This article examines the effects and implications of the Arab boycott upon existing and evolving norms of contemporary international law. To properly analyze the international legal norms, the operative …

International Trade And Finance, Jagdish N. Bhagwati

Professor Tinbergen must hold a record in the number of Festschriften that have been written for him. His students and colleagues have reprinted his essays, as an interesting variation on the usual form of felicitation; and a volume of essays was presented by Bos in 1969. Now, Willy Sellekaerts has produced three volumes towards the same end! In a world of increasing output and diminishing time to read it, it is doubtful whether this Wicksellian phenomenon of exploding Festschriften for a single scientist should be applauded, regarded with amusement, or deplored! Does not the law of diminishing marginal utility apply …

State Trading Monopolies In The European Economic Community, Ernst-Joachim Mestmacker
State Trading Monopolies In The European Economic Community, Ernst-Joachim Mestmacker
Vanderbilt Law Review
Governments have long recognized state trading monopolies as convenient devices to achieve political and commercial objectives concurrently, using the leverage of their economic power to political ends and vice versa. The effectiveness of the Boston Tea Party, and its aftermath, in adjusting state trading monopolies to the requirements of free trade settled the problem for the United States only. Thus, when the parties to the Treaty of Rome' agreed to divest themselves of their control over intra-Community trade by the establishment of a customs union, they were faced with the problems posed by their trading monopolies as well. The state …
