The Research on Anti-dumping, Cost and Chinese Export: Based on Multilateral Resistance Term of Gravity Model

Abstract

Using country-industry data, this study investigates the effect of anti-dumping on Chinese export via Multilateral Resistance Term of Gravity Model. Begin with the effect of anti-dumping on total export, we further investigate the mechanism between them with extensive margin and intensive margin theory in Dutt et al. (2013). We find that, anti-dumping has a statistically significant and negative effect on total export, extensive margin and intensive margin, and the increase of variable cost is the mechanism of negative effect between anti-dumping and export.
