India has rapidly grown from imposing its first anti-dumping measure in 1992 to becoming the largest user
of anti-dumping measures in the past few years. While data suggest that the trigger was the removal of
quantitative restrictions on imports, the continued reduction of import tariffs has played an important role in
sustaining this high use of anti-dumping measures. As successive Indian governments pursue the policy of
reducing peak tariff rates to about 5-10 percent, the trend of initiating a large number of anti-dumping
investigations is likely to continue. While this may sound ominous, one of the strongest non-economic rationales
for the continued popularity of anti-dumping measures is that it functions as an effective political tool for
building support for global trade. The argument therefore is that anti-dumping promises a certain degree of
protection to domestic players and thereby convinces them to accept greater, more wide-ranging, and beneficial,
trade liberalization. The increased use of anti-dumping measures by the India government thus can be seen as an
assurance that the increased free trade will be fair and that temporary relief would be provided to domestic
players who are adversely affected. 【題組】23. What is the author’s purpose in the passage above?
(A) Evaluating India’s economical problems.
