China's Anti-Dumping Problems and Mitigation through Regional Trade Agreements
CESifo, Munich, 2015
CESifo Working Paper No. 5227
This paper highlights the severity of China’s AD problems, and high concentration of AD actions taken by the top initiators, noting that China can offer a higher level of economic integration in an RTA in exchange for improved regional AD provisions. Case studies on RTAs give precedents in modifying regional AD provisions. Our finding of a weak effect of existing RTAs on mitigating China’s AD problems suggests that China could become more active in mitigating AD problems by RTA negotiations.
