Ebook: The Political Economy of Trade Conflicts: The Management of Trade Relations in the US-EU-Japan Triad

The papers of this volume were presented at an international conference on "The Political Economy of Trade Conflicts" in Tokyo in December 1993. The conference brought together practitioners with a long experience in trade negotiations, economists, and political scientists from Europe, Japan, and the US to exchange experiences, views, and arguments on various trade policy issues.
The papers cover general aspects of EU trade policy, Japanese trade policy, EU-Japan and US-Japan relations; they address policy issues in specific conflict prone industries such as agriculture and high technology; they analyze the effects of antidumping policies in high technology industries and investigate the applicability of competition rules to international trade.
