Former Legal Advisor to the Vice Chairman, United States International Trade Commission. A.B., 1974; A.M., 1977; Ph.D., 1983; J.D., 1984, The University of Chicago. I am indebted to Richard Boltuck, my colleague at the Commission, who not only provided a number of valuable insights after reading an earlier draft, but whose own work on the economics of dumping was the inspiration for much of this paper. I have also had the benefit of an excellent memorandum on dumping written by David Abramowitz, who served as an intern in the Vice Chairman's office during the summer of 1986. The views expressed in this paper are solely those of the author, who is alone responsible for any remaining errors.
