Antidumping Law and Practice in the United States and the European Communities

The book describes and analyzes the antidumping law of the United States and the European Communities as it has developed in administrative practice from 1980 to 1986. It is the first comprehensive comparative analysis of the antidumping law of the world's two largest trading units. The analysis reveals shortcomings in both GATT international regulation of antidumping and in national implementations thereof in the US and the Common Market. Proposals for change are offered which would significantly enhance predictability and rational applications of the rules. The practical approach and extensive description of US & EC law and practice make this book important for international trade lawyers and businesses which deal with the antidumping law on a day-to-day basis.
