# Ground Zero in the Trade Wars

  May 2007

The Metropolitan Corporate Counsel

 

 

 

 

 

 

The article describes the World Trade Organization Appellate Body’s ruling that the United States cannot employ the practice of zeroing when calculating duties on foreign products dumped in the U.S. market. The author argues that the ruling against zeroing threatens U.S. jobs and jeopardizes both the advancement of international trade negotiations in the Doha Round and Congress’ willingness to renew trade promotion authority.
