The Anti-Rules* (*Now That You've Got Him, How Do You Get Rid Of Him) Compiled & Written By Barbara L.S. Donahue 60% of all first marriages end in divorce. 45% of divorced people choose to re-marry and of those marriages, 85% also end in divorce. This book is not about straightforward negotiations or reconciliation. This book is for those of "us" who have tried to conventionally go along with the system, only to realize later, that the system doesn't work. It is a book for people who have already exhausted all other remedies and who are ready to do whatever it takes to persevere and win. This is divorce-gorilla warfare style!

More and more members of the WTO are using anti-dumping (AD) measures as an effective tool for protecting domestic industries facing competition with foreign products. In contrast to the 'big four' (US, EC, Canada and Australia), which have been using AD measures frequently since the GATT era, many of the new users established their AD regimes and began to use them after the establishment of the WTO. Why are there more and more new users? How are they applying AD measures? Do they comply with the rules of the WTO Anti- Dumping Agreement? What are their specific characteristics in the handling of AD cases? What should exporters and practitioners do to prepare for AD investigations by the new users? Based on extensive analyses of primary materials and hearings from practitioners and AD authorities, this book provides detailed and updated information to answer these questions on the following new users: China, Chinese Taipei, Korea, Thailand, India, South Africa, Mexico, Argentina, and Brazil.

For over a decade China has been globally recognized as the leading recipient of antidumping measures. On the other hand, China's use of antidumping measures is equally noteworthy. Xiaochen Wu's timely book takes a very practical approach as it examines its subject in a broad context. Besides providing a rich and detailed interpretation of the legal provisions, it discusses complex technical aspects of the Chinese antidumping law in a very pragmatic way, notably by providing actual instances of their application in the antidumping investigations conducted by the Chinese Ministry of Commerce (MOFCOM). This book is also very handy since it consolidates detailed statistics pertaining to Chinese antidumping proceedings since 1997 as well as all important legal texts including China's antidumping law and the 15 MOFCOM implementing provisions along with relevant legal interpretation. Readers will quickly discover that the book is thoroughly enriched with the thoughtful commentary and pertinent observations of its author. Having addressed and understood antidumping matters both from the public and private sector perspective, Xiaochen Wu provides a very unique and extensive analysis of the Chinese antidumping law and its practice. In sum, this work incorporates the essence of his personal experience as witnessed in the insightful examination of each antidumping provision and thoughtful reflections on complicated and exceptional situations which have come up in trade proceedings or which may very well arise in the not too distant future.

In the era of globalization, trade policy has become a key development tool and expanding exports a major policy objective for developing countries. However, pressures for protectionism are threatening to reverse the gains. The surge of anti-dumping practices in the 1990s in many countries have triggered an intense debate on the anti-dumping agreement and its implementation. This volume analyses the importance of anti-dumping from a developing country's perspective. The author investigates the use of anti-dumping in a comparative framework and reviews the genesis and evolution of the Agreement and its legal provisions. She further discusses the economic and non-economic justifications of anti-dumping use and empirically analyses the macro-economic factors motivating countries to use anti-dumping. Finally she examines the wide-ranging proposals to reform the WTO anti-dumping code. The analysis brings out a bias against developing countries and stresses the need for fundamental reform of current anti-dumping rules. The author also reflects on plausible approaches to refine existing provisions and explores the possibility of reform by including a Public Interest Test. She suggests updating the special and differential treatment provisions to remedy existing imbalances.
