Dans le présent Podcast, notre Senior Fellow Uri Dadush apporte des éclairages nécessaires pour la compréhension des impacts que pourrait générer la guerre commerciale entre les Etats-Unis et la Chine.
Dans son analyse, l’économiste Dadush décline les trois dimensions que pourraient revêtir les effets de ce conflit commercial, en considérant que l’une d’elles aura un impact très négatif, en ce sens que c’est l’économie mondiale qui sera affectée.
Uri Dadush fait remarquer que ce conflit commercial, de même que les négociations bilatérales qui le ponctuent, se déroulent en dehors du cadre de l’Organisation Mondiale du Commerce (OMC). De ce fait, souligne-t-il, les Américains, tout autant que les Chinois, agissent dans l’illégalité, donnant un mauvais exemple pour le reste du monde.

    The trade tensions between the United States and China will cause only minor immediate damage to their giant economies.

The main adverse effects on Sub-Saharan Africa will therefore be through global investor confidence, economic growth and commodity prices, and these effects could be severe if the dispute escalates further and endangers the rules-based trading system. The tra ...

    Imagining world trade without the WTO/GATT system. It was after all, the case through recorded history until around 1950. But today’s economies are far more globally integrated than in the past, and information technologies which facilitate communication and coordination are clearly pointing to even more integration in the future. Under a no-WTO scenario, this brief formulates seven predictions. The danger to the WTO is clear and present, and it is on four fronts. First is the fail ...

    Morocco Faces its First Commercial Dispute before the WTO

    This paper examines Turkey's case against Morocco before the World Trade Organization (WTO), over anti-dumping duties on hot-rolled steel products. Turkey's complaint constitutes both a precedent and an opportunity. First, it is a precedent in that Morocco was previously never involved in a case before GATT or WTO, neither as a plaintiff nor as a defendant. Second, it is an opportunity as the evaluation of the legal process of the complaint enables an assessment of adequacy of Moroc ...
