Abstract

This paper attempts to detect discretionary practices in anti-dumping (AD) investigations conducted by the European Union (EU) between 1995 and 2012. It complements findings on discretionary practices documented by Blonigen (2006) for the US Department of Commerce. Using a probit model, we demonstrate that the number of decisive factors used for the causation decision has additional discriminatory power after controlling for traditional causation determinants. The number of decisive factors results from discretionary practices; we address this by endogenizing the number of determinants used in the investigations. Based on the Flex model (Santos Silva et al., 2014), which lets us account for the doubly bounded nature of the number of determinants, we observe that the number of decisive factors used in injury investigations is high for cases involving countries for which the import volume is high and for countries that frequently use their own AD law.
欧盟反倾销损害调查的模式
本文试图检测1995年至2012年欧盟反倾销调查中的自由裁量行为。它补充了Blonigen(2006)为美国商务部记录的关于自由裁量行为的调查结果。利用概率模型,我们证明了在控制传统因果决定因素后,用于因果决定的决定性因素的数量具有额外的歧视性。决定性因素的数量源于自由裁量行为;我们通过内源性的调查中使用的决定因素的数量来解决这个问题。根据Flex模型(Santos Silva et al., 2014),我们可以解释决定因素数量的双重有限性,我们观察到,在涉及进口量高的国家和经常使用本国反倾销法的国家的案件中,伤害调查中使用的决定因素数量很高。
