摘要註
Motivated by recent events and experiences in antitrust enforcement and policy in the United States and the European Union, and new insights and findings from academic research, this book presents a collection of theoretical, empirical and public policy-oriented articles representing recent research on the political-economy of antitrust. Political-economy is defined broadly to include the demand-side drivers of antitrust activity such as market failures and interest-groups, along with supply-side drivers including ideology and partisan politics as well as theimportance of informational limitations in antitrust enforcement and the institutional structure of the antitrust agencies.

While the individual chapters of the book make independent contributions and may be read separately, thebook brings together articles from various sub-areas to present a more encompassing picture.
