INTERNATIONAL MARKETING INDIVIDUAL ASSIGNMENT
CASE 8-1 ASIAN SHOE EXPORTS TO EUROPE : THE ASSIGNMENT
BRIEF SUMMARY
EU regulates antidumping to China and Vietnam’s shoes product just because the importer from China and Vietnam sold their products in cheaper price than EU local product and also cheaper than the products tht being sold in home countries itself, China and Vietnam (dumping). In EU point of view, China and Vietnam are nonmarket economies which means that those two countries domestic prices are artificial.According to financial times, anti dumping usually used in large scale business and capital intensive like steel and in this context, shoes making is not one of those.
Shoes are not the only product that protected by anti dumping in EU. In 2005, bicycle industry also being protected by anti dumping against China and Vietnam products. Some observers think that it was unfair to combine Vietnamess and Chinesse product in the same trade suit but in other hand, European comission conclude that Vietnam and China bicycle have same type and distribution.
The anti dumping causes low import shoes product from China and Vietnam and it become oppurtunity to other country to enter the market since EU consists of lots of countries and consumers.
CASE 8 – 1 DISCUSSION QUESTION
1. When tariffs are imposed on European imports of shoes from China and Vietnam, who stands to gain? Who stands to lose?

In the situation when tariffs are imposed against China and Vietnam, EU countries will get more gain because if China and Vietnam still want to enter EU’s market, they must pay high tariff to EU government which means, high income for EU. In addition, the situation can also give advantage for other country such as Indonesia to enter the market because EU not imposed anti dumping to Indonesian product, yet.
Surely, the situation will make China and Vietnam go into collapse because they must pay high tariff with uncertain

    Choosing the appropriate tariffs or quotas is a delicate balancing act because the country is imposing the tariffs and/or quotas as a means to protect the domestic business sector. An example of this is, if the United States produces a technology and the same technology is imported from foreign soil at a cheaper rate, a tariff or quota would be introduced to ensure the cost of the foreign technology is up to the cost of the domestically produced technology. These tariffs and quotas are important because in the event that the scales become unbalance, international relations as well as trade are strained. When international relations and trade become strained, the foreign trade partner will initiate its own counterbalancing tariffs and quotas. For this vary reason the United States will not restrict all goods coming in from China as this move would initiate a trade war. This attack on each countries’ trade is accomplished by imposing high tariffs or quota restrictions. It is unfeasible for the United States to minimize imports coming in from all countries because of the various trade agreements the United States shares with these country’s varies. For example, a small developing country could only have one or two products it produces and trades; while a larger more developed country will have an abundance of products it…

    US producers of steel and steel products have fallen victim to aggressively competitive pricing from international firms. In 1999 the US government determined that six countries were indeed dumping stainless steel into the US market. Half of those countries governments were facilitating this process by providing unfair subsidies to offset the firm’s losses from selling at below market prices. In 2001, the Bush administration installed a 30 percent tariff on those countries found guilty of illegal dumping. This same issue is still prevalent today as China has been accused of doing the same thing. They have significantly lower prices than American firms due to the fact that China has been devaluing their currency in order to make exports unfairly cheaper. The US government must intervene and install another…

    The effects of globalization have touched all the aspects of life and business today. One aspect is the trading policies between countries. Since the late nineteenth century, the collision started between domestic and foreign industries, which ask governments for measures that could protect local industries, without discouraging the country’s trade relations. The term ‘Protectionism’ was thus introduced in the language of global trade and economy (Rowley, 2002). Protectionism is an economic policy applied in the trading system, to restrict the quantity of imported items, and to flourish country’s exports. The objective of this is policy is to maintain the competition between foreign and the domestic industries. In most of the countries, free trade is not followed and various tariffs and duty charges are applied on the import goods. These taxes allow the government to generate a fair bit of revenue, without utilizing their resources. Moreover, it also helps in the sustainability of the domestic industries. The prices of the imported goods are kept higher by adding these taxes so that the local customers, looking for cheaper options, have to buy the domestic items. In parallel to this, the protectionism policy allows domestic industries to raise the prices of their products, without raising the quality of their products (Ethier & Fischer, 1987, pp.1-2).…

    Infringements occur through the World Trade Organization (WTO), International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the European Union (EU) who dictate policies rather than promote them. Many countries cannot establish nor enforce laws and policies to protect them. These organizations who are are supposedly creating and enforcing rules for national trade are the same organizations who are somewhat responsible for the loss of national sovereignty. These super-organzations are viewed as out of control, overly powerful and only accountable and supportive to wealthy companies. Their argument is that there should be a balance among nations to…
