Setting Market Access Priorities: The Use of Super 301 in US Trade with Japan.

- Abstract
The article talks about the most controversial initiative of the United States trade policy in over a decade, the "Super 301" provision of the Omnibus Trade and Competitiveness Act of 1998. In 1989 and 1990, this mentioned trade policy requires the U.S. Executive to set up its trade liberalization priorities and have a negotiation with foreign government to be able to achieve them. It is noted that the administration of President George Herbert Walker Bush warmly welcomed Super 301 and the U.S. Trade Representative (USTR) officials and the Commerce Department were receptive about. However, several trading partners of U.S. have criticized the provision as unilateral, aggressive, and contrary to the standards of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade.
