【 摘 要 】

China finds itself in a unique situationon antidumping and safeguard issues. It is by far the maintarget of antidumping measures, but (so far) one of thesmallest users of such measures. China's World TradeOrganization (WTO) accession protocol includes stringentantidumping and safeguard provisions that its tradingpartners may use against its exports. The article examinesthree related concerns: how quickly large developingeconomies can become intensive users of antidumpingmeasures, an evolution raising concerns about China'srecent antidumping enforcement; how China could minimize itsexposure to foreign antidumping cases, a recipe for bothimproving trade outcomes and for China's taking aleading role in reforming WTO antidumping; and theopportunities that the Doha round of trade negotiationsoffer to China for negotiating stricter disciplines both onWTO contingent protection and on the use by China'strading partners of the special provisions included inChina's accession protocol.
