Trade and Development in a Globalized World ― The Unfair Trade Problem in U.S.-Thai Trade Relations

This is a paperbound reprint of a 2007 book. Rothgeb (political science, Miami U., Oxford, Ohio) and Chinapandhu (political science, Ramkhamhaeng U., Bangkok, Thailand) present a case study of U.S.-Thai trade relations to examine how government officials and private industry representatives from a developing country handle problems associated with the antidumping and antisubsidy rules and procedures they confront in their largest export market and at the World Trade Organization. The study offers insights into the effects of unfair trade regulations on international development and on power in the current international system. For students, scholars, and policymakers in international relations and economics. Annotation ©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
