--- Forscher der amerikanischen Wharton-Universität sehen in den in jüngster Zeit in den USA häufiger zu hörenden Klagen, dass Chinas Billigproduzenten den Arbeitsmarkt in den Vereinigten Staaten kaputt machen, eine rein politisch motivierte Kampagne, die sich faktisch nicht rechtfertigen lässt. It would appear so, given the rhetoric in recent months by American politicians and some business people, who have complained about the loss of U.S. jobs to China, unfair Chinese trade practices and a Chinese foreign currency policy that favors Chinese exporters who flood world markets with cheap goods. But faculty members at Wharton and other business schools say the complaints are politically motivated and ignore the true victims of any trade war – the consumers.
