Book excerpt: A perennial, high-profile issue in U.S.-China trade relations from 1989, the year of the Chinese government¿s suppression of political dissidents during and after the Tianamen Square incident, to 1997, has been the U.S. renewal of China¿s status for Most-Favored-Nation (MFN) duty treatment. Since 1989, the U.S. has renewed this status annually; however, each time the process for the renewal has occurred under strenuous discussion and debate between U.S. policy makers. It is likely these discussions will receive even more attention. This paper presents a background discussion of the recent history of China¿s MFN status, the composition of U.S. imports from China in 1995, and a brief summary of the literature examining this question.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Outright trade war between the world’s two largest economies would be devastating to the working people of both countries, as well as destructive to the future of the entire world economy. The costs of conflict between China and the United States far outweigh the current causes of dispute in their economic relationship. These costs would be both direct, in terms of short-term losses of growth and employment, and indirect, in terms of long-term damage to the world trading system, diminishing investment and efficiency. There are points of genuine dispute between the United States and China over their economic interaction. Even if their economic significance is often exaggerated, these are legitimate points of contention and have to be addressed in a constructive manner. The analyses in this volume aim to contribute to a more reality-based consideration of both countries’ enlightened self-interests, which would yield progress on points of dispute in a manner consistent with keeping the world economy open for business.
Download or read book Us Permanent Normal Trade Relations with China written by Shunli Yao and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The China-US trade relation has been plagued by the threat of MFN revocation in the past 10 years. The recent passage of China WTO bill in US House of Representatives paves the way for eventually granting China the Normal Trade Relations (NTR, formerly MFN) status on a permanent basis. As a result, the annual review of China?s trading status in the US mandated by the 1974 Jackson-Vanik legislation will come to an end. However, as the ideological and political hostility between the two countries which has motivated the MFN debate still exists, the bilateral trade relation will continued to be haunted by similar threats, though may in different semantics and under different legal justifications. Using GTAP, this paper tries to assess the stakes of the US permanent NTR with China by simulating the MFN removal. Given the fact that 75% of US-China trade is handled by the Hong Kong traders, and textile and clothing accounts for a large portion of China and Hong Kong export to the US, this study focuses on how the Hong Kong?s re-export trade and the Multi-fibre Arrangement (MFA) will complicate the assessment. The US trade sanctions against China will seriously disrupt the bilateral trade and both countries will suffer substantial welfare loss. The trade sanctions will also devastate Hong Kong?s economy, as it serves as a middleman in the US-China trade and will be caught in crossfire. The trade conflict between the US and China will make the countries involved (US, China and Hong Kong) less integrated with rest of the world and others more integrated with the rest of the world. Thus, while the US, China and Hong Kong all suffer welfare losses, other countries all have welfare gains. The assessment of the impact of MFN removal on Hong Kong is made possible by the inclusion of the author?s work on Hong Kong?s re-export margins into GTAP database. Based on this work and the US tariff schedules, the author is able to estimate the effective tariff on Hong Kong?s services export to the US induced by the US trade sanctions against China. A scenario that does not consider the role of Hong Kong?s re-export in US-China trade will over-estimate the damage done to the US, as it ignores the expansion of Hong Kong?s exports of non-services sectors, which will lower the cost of the US import replacement. The US welfare loss is conditional on the existence of MFA. If the US unilaterally relaxes the MFA quota, it will reverse the welfare loss to welfare gain. This is in part because the MFA keeps the prices of the textile and clothing high and this gives the high potential of welfare gain from removing MFA on the US part alone. But if the MFN and the worldwide MFA are removed simultaneously, the US will suffer a welfare loss. In fact, the MFA is going to be phased out in 2005 under the Uruguay round agreement. Without MFA, this paper shows that the US sanctions against China will cause the US $2.9 billion loss. This will be the only outcome and the US will not have any options to buffer the damage. Thus, it is a wise move for the US to grant China the permanent NTR.

Download or read book China s Growing Role in World Trade written by Robert C. Feenstra and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2010-03-10 with total page 603 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In less than three decades, China has grown from playing a negligible role in international trade to being one of the world's largest exporters, a substantial importer of raw materials, intermediate outputs, and other goods, and both a recipient and source of foreign investment. Not surprisingly, China's economic dynamism has generated considerable attention and concern in the United States and beyond. While some analysts have warned of the potential pitfalls of China's rise—the loss of jobs, for example—others have highlighted the benefits of new market and investment opportunities for US firms. Bringing together an expert group of contributors, China's Growing Role in World Trade undertakes an empirical investigation of the effects of China's new status. The essays collected here provide detailed analyses of the microstructure of trade, the macroeconomic implications, sector-level issues, and foreign direct investment. This volume's careful examination of micro data in light of established economic theories clarifies a number of misconceptions, disproves some conventional wisdom, and documents data patterns that enhance our understanding of China's trade and what it may mean to the rest of the world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Military strength has become inconsequential in the pursuit of any industrialized nation's most vital interests. Alternatively, states would do well to focus on the possibilities of exploitation of power through economic strength and economic interdependence. This research reviews the theoretical approached to power and interdependence and applies these concepts to the bilateral relationship between the U.S. and People's Republic of China. This case study suggests that: (1) the post-Cold War national interests of these two disparate countries typify the international shift to economics-based power, and (2) under carefully qualified circumstances, power can arise from asymmetries in economic Although 'engagement' has failed to capture the strategic imagination of its predecessor, President Clinton undoubtedly sees his election as rooted in national economic rejuvenation, not grand security strategies. Clear signals exist that demonstrate the Chinese leadership's dedication to economic growth as the nation's number one priority. New career paths have emerged for clever revisionists who can accommodate Maoist Marxism to Western capitalism.
