“…There is considerable scope for discretion by the two agencies that administer the AD law, e.g., as discussed in various chapters by Boltuck and Litan (1991), Lindsey and Ikenson (2002), and Blonigen (2006) regarding the USDOC; Cass and Knoll (1997) and Sykes (1997) regarding the USITC. But in general terms this is not surprising.…”

This paper investigates the effects of U.S. AD actions on DCs. It first considers administrative actions by the U.S. Department of Commerce, which decides AD margins for countries. It then considers decision making by the U.S. International Trade Commission, which determines injury to domestic industry. The econometric results show that USDOC actions lead to significantly higher AD margins for NMEs (all DCs) than for MOEs. Among countries that suffer from U.S. AD actions DCs have a significantly higher ratio of dumped imports to total imports (relative dumped imports) compared with middle income countries. However, the results also show that relative dumped imports of high income countries are also greater than middle income countries. Terms of use: Documents in EconStor may

“…These calls for reform are almost always based on utilitarian arguments. Scholars in this category include Cass and Narkin (1990), Dale (1980), Gunn (2005), Hindley & Messerlin (1996), Johnson (1992), Kaplan, Kamarck & Parker (1988), Knoll (1987), Lindsey & Ikenson (2002), and Palmeter (1986.…”

“…5 5 Sykes (1997) and Cass and Knoll (1997) discussed the importance of lobbies in trade negotiations over managed trade instruments. Levy (1999), on the other hand, extended Grossman and Helpman (1994) to a repeated‐game framework and showed that the level of cooperative baseline tariffs is dependent on both the discount factor and the weight a government gives to interest groups.…”

This article illustrates the importance of imperfect information in self-enforcing trade agreements. It shows that expected welfare is higher with current period uncertainty, and "a high level" of uncertainty may "even" undermine the need for a safeguard clause. These results were derived by extending the seminal paper by Bagwell and Staiger ("The American Economic Review" 80 (1990), 779-95) to account for current period uncertainty.
