“…Usually, the gravity model is used to estimate the effect of NTMs on trade (Kee et al 2009;Disdier and Marette 2010). Khouilid and Echaoui (2017) used the elasticity of imported demand and an estimated gravitational equation for a sample of 28 countries of different levels of development to analyze the impact of non-tariff measures on Moroccan exportation. Genç and Law (2014) highlight the growing importance of nonpolicy-induced barriers to trade.…”

Although more and more countries adopt the idea of free trade, protectionism has rebounded in the wake of the economic crisis of 1929 and remains a reality of our days. The principle of "learning by doing", national security or unfair competition has also been proposed over time to justify the use of protectionism. Liberalization (free trade policy) and protectionism are two fundamental instruments for governments to control international trade, in other words, two different types of foreign trade policy. Free trade policy is the minimum of state intervention in foreign trade, developed by free-market forces of supply and demand, while protectionism provides for the protection of the internal market from the international competition through the use of tariff and non-tariff instruments. Protectionism according to Nicita et al. (2013) refers to the measurement taken by the government to promote the local industry in the face of international competition. Baldwin (1970) defines as any measure (public or private) that causes internationally traded goods and services, or devoted to the

“…Examples are Carrère and De Melo [33], Beghin et al [34], Ghodsi and Stehrer [35] and McCallum and Lincoln [36]. Many literatures, such as Kee et al [37], Disdier and Marette [38] and Khouilid and Echaoui [39], used the gravity model in order to estimate the effect of protectionist trade policies on international trade. Researches such as Arkolakis [40], Hummels and Klenow [41], and Steingress [42] approached the NTBs as an additional entry cost to international trade.…”

Various risks and uncertainties are strengthening the downside of the global economy. This paper aims to estimate the impact of the US–China conflict and the World Trade Organization (WTO) Appellate Body’s shutdown on global logistics demand and to show the seriousness of the situation. Existing literature studies on protectionism or the US–China trade conflict were considered, with a focus on the effects of specific issues or impact on bilateral relations. No research has quantitatively considered the adverse effects of the Appellate Body’s shutdown. In this situation, questions can be raised whether the current global shipping logistics system can be sustainable or not. This paper attempts to estimate the shrinking demand for shipping logistics due to global protectionism. Using a dynamic general equilibrium model and trade-cargo-container conversion methodology, which differentiates this paper from previous studies, the paper suggests that the combination of tariffs and NTBs can severely reduce international trade and the demand for maritime logistics services. Depending on the scenario, port cargo is expected to decrease by 3.95 to 6.9 trillion tons, which can be half of the global cargo. Based on these estimates, this paper suggests that a catastrophe could occur in global trade order as well as global maritime logistics. Finally, underlining that the international trade order should not be severely damaged, this paper proposes that countries around the world should seriously discuss this issue at the 12th WTO Trade Ministers’ Meeting in Kazakhstan in June 2020.

تهدف هذه الدراسة إلى تقييم وجهة نظر الشركات المستوردة حول التدابير غير التعريفية. و للإجابة على إشكالية الدراسة تم الاستعانة بمقاربة مركز التجارة الدولية التي يطلق عليها بالتقييم المباشر (أو المقاربة الشاملة) و التي تتمثل في مسح يتم إدارته بطريقة مباشرة على عينة تكونت من 50 شركة بولاية وهران، من أجل الاستفادة من تجاربهم في التعرف على أهم القيود التي يتعرضون لها. و بعد تحليل نتائج الدراسة توصلنا إلى تحديد جوانب التقييد التي تترافق مع نشاط الشركات و التي تتمثل في القيود غير التعريفية المرهقة و المكلفة، القيود الإجرائية التي تؤدي إلى زيادة تكاليف الامتثال للتدابير غير التعريفية و عدم الكفاءة في بيئة الأعمال المرتبطة بالتجارة. و لهذا توصي الدراسة بدور أكبر للسلطات العمومية في تبسيط كل العمليات و الإجراءات المعتمدة و التي تبقى أكبر تحدي يواجه سياسات الإصلاح التجاري إلى جانب تحسين بيئة الأعمال.
