Abstract: Abstract This essay examines potential biases in the World Trade Organization (WTO) dispute settlement process regarding anti-dumping duty cases, investigating whether the system disproportionately favors developed nations by analyze several precedents of anti-dumping duty related disputes. Using the 2011 U.S.-China automobile anti-dumping dispute as a primary case study, the paper delves into procedural and structural challenges that developing countries face in these investigations. After explicit comparison between this case with other international disputes, the study highlights systemic issues, such as stringent evidence requirements, lack of procedural transparency, and the high costs associated with participation in WTO disputes. These factors often place developing nations at a disadvantage, hindering their ability to present effective defenses or challenge rulings. This essay will also argue that the WTO’s framework does not adequately address the resource constraints of developing countries which potentially lead to outcomes that reinforce global trade inequities. This analysis emphasizes and underscores the importance of reforms to ensure a more balanced and equitable dispute resolution process.
