Restrictive practices in trade in manufactured goods
Incidence:
Technical specifications for communications consumer products may be so designed as to eliminate some potential imports, or to raise their cost of manufacture. Computer-compatible peripheral equipment may be limited by technical obstacles so that main-frame or original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) retain a near-monopoly position on these items.
