中国“入世”议定书第15条与“市场经济地位”问题探讨

Article 15 of China's Accession Protocol and China's Market Economy Status

《中国加入议定书》第15条涉及的是中国在反倾销和反补贴中的价格公平比较,被认为是关于中国"非市场经济地位"的条款。实际上,该条规定的是在何种情况下适用"替代国价格"以及在任何情况下"替代国方法"在中国"入世"15年后的适用必须停止。替代国价格适用与否和市场经济地位是有联系又有区别的两个不同概念,不可混淆。《中国加入议定书》和WTO协定中对市场经济或非市场经济地位没有任何规定或标准,与"非市场经济地位"有关的仅仅是一些WTO成员方的国内法规定。

Article 15 of China＇s WTO Accession Protocol provides that the fair price comparison in its AD ＆ CVD cases is adopted, and generally it was considered as the article of the ＂nonmarket economy status＂ . In fact, the article provides how to apply ＂the surrogate price＂ and its termination after 15 years of China＇ s accession to WTO. It should not be confused for these two concepts which are both contact and relative independence. There is no provision or standard on ＂the market economy＂ or the ＂nonmarket economy status＂ , and it is only related to a few WTO members＇ domestic law or regulations.
