摘要:
We analyze the effects of antidumping law when utilized by competitive domestic petitioners against a foreign monopolist. The monopolist reduces the cost of holding excess capacity in periods of slack foreign demand by dumping on the domestic market. Antidumping law reduces trade volume both directly (under successful petitions), and indirectly (when no petition is filed) by causing the monopolist to alter its capacity and the allocation of that capacity between markets. Finally, we consider the effects of self-enforcing agreements in which the domestic industry agrees not to file in exchange for a promise that the foreign monopolist limit exports.
