Social dumping
Social dumping is a political catchphrase that is used to express critically that providers from countries that do not have the same labor and social standards as in their own country offer economic goods cheaper and therefore represent illegitimate competition.
In return, it is claimed that behind the moral claim and demands for trade sanctions for social dumping there is a new form of protectionism . Less developed countries would become more prosperous through increased trade, which would allow an expansion of their social policy. There is also no reason why the same standards should apply in all countries.
