Este ensayo desarrolla un modelo de dumping internacional bajo mercados de competencia imperfecta donde las empresas explotan sus ventajas comparativas. El análisis de estática comparativa sugiere, primero, que bajo libre comercio y una política de competencia coordinada un producto con dumping puede aumentar el bienestar económico para el país importador bajo diversas estructuras de mercado de dichos productos. Estos beneficios surgen de precios importados más bajos y de un aumento de la competencia en el mercado doméstico. Segundo, en ausencia de estas políticas de competencia coordinadas entre países, el comercio de productos con dumping cuando los mercados de los productos son de competencia imperfecta sí puede producir pérdidas para el país importador. Tercero, el análisis de bienestar de instrumentos compensatorios al dumping indica que dichas medidas comerciales son las menos convenientes para el país importador. La mejor política es libre comercio acompañada de una política de competencia coordinada entre países. Cuarto, el modelo en adición permite identificar instrumentos alternativos que mejoran el bienestar del país importador de bienes comerciados con dumping.Downloads
