Abstract
Trade remedy laws predicate their foundation on the very existence of “injury” to the domestic industry. While the nature and degree of causal relationship is unspecified in the WTO trade remedy agreements, the WTO panels and the Appellate Body have crafted certain treaty specific standards on injury and causation in all three categories of trade remedies. This introductory chapter examines the currently available literature on the application of appropriate injury and causation standards in WTO trade remedy law. This chapter sets out the key focus of enquiry of this book and the desirability of achieving coherence in evaluating injury and the causal link.
