Trade Remedies

The United States and many of its trading partners use laws known as trade remedies to mitigate the adverse impacts of various trade practices on domestic industries and workers. This book discusses congressional interest in trade remedy laws and describes legislation seeking to amend the laws. Also discussed are anti-dumping and countervailing duty laws, procedures, and investigations. U.S. safeguard statutes and investigative procedures are presented along with an appendix outlining all U.S. trade remedy status, major actors, and effects of these laws.
