Some U.S. companies allege that unfair subsidies are a factor in Chinese success in U.S. markets. U.S. producers injured by subsidized imports may normally seek countervailing duties (CVD) to offset subsidies, but the U.S. does not apply CVDs against countries, including China, that the Dept. of Commerce classifies as non-market economiesÓ (NME). This report: (1) explains why the U.S. does not apply CVDs to China; (2) describes alternatives for changing this policy; (3) explores challenges that would arise in applying CVDs; & (4) examines the implications for duty rates on Chinese products. Includes recommendations. Charts & tables.

In the decade since the establishment of the WTO, the great majority of disputes between member states resolved and decided through the dispute settlement system of the WTO arose in the field of trade remedies law, a fact which clearly shows the high demand by the trade community for the rule of law in this area. Responsive to such needs, the fourth volume encompasses the whole range of trade remedies regulation under the auspices of the WTO in the respective articles of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) and the related multilateral agreements on trade in goods, i.e., Articles VI, XII, XIX GATT 1994; the Understanding on the Balance-of-Payments; the Agreement on Implementation of Article VI GATT 1994 (Anti-Dumping Agreement); the Agreement on Subsidies and Countervailing Duties; and the Agreement on Safeguards. Leading practitioners and scholars have gathered to provide an invaluable insight and easy access to the law on trade remedies in an article-by-article commentary approach. As such, it will be an essential work not only for trade remedies practitioners but to persons interested in trade remedies be they scholars, academics, international and domestic lawyers, political scientists and economists, or NGO representatives.

U.S. companies adversely affected by unfair imports may seek antidumping (AD) duties. China is classified as a non-market economy (NME) & a special methodology is used that is believed to produce AD duty rates that are higher than those applied to market economies. In light of increased concern about China's trade practices, a review was conducted by efforts of U.S. gov't. agencies responsible for ensuring free & fair trade with China. This report: (1) explains the NME methodology; (2) analyzes AD duties applied to China & compares them with duties applied to market economies; & (3) explains circumstances in which the U.S. would stop applying its NME methodology to China & evaluates the potential impact of such a step. Charts & tables.
