论反倾销法中“公共利益”原则的引入

On the Introduction of the "Public Interest" Principle into the Anti-dumping Law

反倾销在保护国内产业的同时,可能损害进口国下游产业和消费者的利益,在反倾销程序中引入"公共利益"评价,能够更好地平衡各种利益冲突。然而"公共利益"本身的内容和受益对象的不确定,使得反倾销法中的"公共利益"条款实际是把"双刃剑",必须确定一整套严密而完善的措施,才能在适用"公共利益"条款的同时防止其被滥用。

While protecting the domestic industries, anti-dumping may harm the interests of downstream industries and consumers in an importing country. The introduction of the public interest appraisal into the anti-dumping procedures may better balance the interest conflicts of different parties. However, the content and the beneficiary of ＂public interest＂ are indefinite and this virtually makes the ＂public interest＂ article in an anti-dumping law a ＂double-edged sword＂. Hence, a strict and complete set of measures should be defined so that the ＂public interest＂ article can be properly applied instead of being abused.
