Do exports resume when
import-restricting temporary trade barriers such as
antidumping are finally removed? To establish the importance
of this question for emerging economies, this paper uses
newly available data from the World Bank's Temporary
Trade Barriers Database to update a number of inter-temporal
indicators of import protection along three dimensions:
additional time coverage through 2011, additional
policy-imposing country coverage, and a more comprehensive
depiction of impacted trading partner coverage. It then
turns to the emerging economy exporters affected by
temporary trade barriers and highlights the economic
significance of frequently bilateral import restrictions
imposed by other emerging economies, i.e., South-South
protectionism. Finally, it then investigates empirically
whether country-level exports resume when the previously
imposed -- but temporary -- import protection is finally
removed. China's exporters respond quickly and
aggressively to the market access opening embodied in the
removal of such import restrictions. This differs markedly
from the slow and tepid export response of other emerging
economies, especially when the import protection had been
imposed by another emerging economy trading partner. This
evidence suggests a previously unidentified long-run cost
associated with such South-South protectionism that merits
further research and inquiry. |
