Competition policy aims to prevent anticompetitive agreements and
mergers, limiting the abusive exercise of market power. The
formulation and application of this policy presents significant
challenges, which include showing that proposed mergers are
anticompetitive, proving that firms are members of cartels and
defending apparently restrictive vertical agreements. For this
insightful volume, the editor has selected key papers which
illustrate how far we have come towards meeting these challenges.
They provide comprehensive developmental coverage of the theory
that underpins and justifies competition policy, and of the
econometric tests that demonstrate its effects and violations. This
timely book will be an invaluable resource to researchers and
practitioners alike with an interest in this important subject.
