China's rise as a major trading power has prompted debate about the nature of that country's involvement in the liberal international economic order. "China's Foreign Trade Policy" sheds light on this complex question by examining the changing domestic forces shaping China's foreign trade relations. Specifically, this book explores the evolving trade policymaking process in China by looking at: China's WTO accession negotiation; China's bilateral trade disputes; the development of China's antidumping regime; and China's emerging trade disputes in the WTO. In addition, the author examines how lobbying patterns in China are becoming more open and pluralistic, with bureaucratic agencies, sectoral interests, regional interests, and even transnational actors increasingly able to influence the process and outcome of China's trade negotiations.
