Unless Rowland's North Carolina workers suddenly become competitive with Chinese counterparts who earn just a few dollars a day, he fears his employees will be next. Rowland ticks off what he regards as China's unfair advantages: excessive government protection, an underpriced currency, cowed and underpaid workers, exports dumped below cost. If Washington won't help, he says, he'll have to move some jobs overseas. The quotas the U.S. set on some Chinese textiles in November aren't enough. "Our government has done nothing...

Paris graduate student Thomas Brun agrees: "The sentence is tough, but not necessarily unfair. The court apparently wanted to set a precedent. Perhaps this is how it will be from now on." Like the man himself, the Juppé case is exceptional - and central to the future of French conservatives. Juppé's loyalty to Chirac and his record of public service famously prompted...
