Because of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT), governments have created new nontariff barriers. GATT forces members to eliminate tariff barriers. In order to control trade, countries are forced to respond through nontariff barriers such as orderly market arrangements, voluntary import expansion, and voluntary export restraints.
