| Summary/Abstract |
As governments lower traditional tariffs, they may use non-tariff barriers, such as antidumping (AD) and countervailing duty (CVD) laws, to protect domestic industries. Research on the US International Trade Commission (ITC), an independent agency responsible for adjudicating AD/CVD claims, finds mixed evidence of political influence in these cases. However, this research focuses predominately on the political influence of the petitioning industry. Applying theories of bureaucratic oversight, I posit that the ITC must be receptive both to petitioners and to firms that oppose trade barriers. Using an original data set compiled from ITC records of witness testimony in these cases, I demonstrate that domestic opposition to an AD/CVD petition has a significant effect on ITC decisions. Moreover, members of Congress actively intervene on both sides of AD/CVD petitions and have some influence on ITC decisions. These results suggest that AD/CVD politics in the United States is better understood as a contest between competing domestic interests than a captured bureaucracy providing rents to protectionist interests.

| Summary/Abstract |
Reporters were informed at a press conference held by the Xinjiang Uighur Autonomous Region Party Committee's Office of the Human Resources Development Leading Group that the Xinjiang Uighur Autonomous Region Mid- and Long-Term Talent Development Program (2010-20) (hereinafter referred to as the "talent program") has, with approval from the regional party committee and the regional people's government, been officially promulgated. The talent program is the Xinjiang Uighur Autonomous Region's first mid- and long-term human resources development program and constitutes an important guiding document for the autonomous region's human resources development work today and for some time to come. The formulation and implementation of the talent program is an important measure for implementing the scientific concept of development and for better implementing the "strong human resources region" strategy (rencaiqiangqu zhanlue); it is an inevitable requirement for implementing the overall strategic dispositions to "build a stable and prosperous Xinjiang, bring prosperity to its people, and consolidate the border regions" and for bringing about scientific leaps forward and "enabling latecomers to catch up and surpass"; and it is of enormous significance for enhancing self-development capacities, coping with the strategic options of increasingly fierce international and domestic competition, accelerating Xinjiang's leapfrog advances and long-term stability, and achieving the goal of building a moderately prosperous society
