Sustainable Development Path for the Rare Earth Industry under the Background of Trade Disputes

Abstract:

The sustainable development of the rare earth industry is based on the rational allocation of the rare earth resource. This article analyzes the necessity of the regulation control of the rare earth export from the requirements of sustainable development and the current problems of the industry, such as new problems of the quota management in export, intensified trade friction and the increasingly rampant smuggling, and makes feasible proposals to promote the rare earth strategy. China should persist the constructive and responsible attitude, taking the international and national resource and markets into account, pursue a win-win strategy which can not only keep the rare earth supply reasonable in the international market, but also protect the ecological environment and resource.
