Competition Law and Policy

Course Description

This course will examine issues that arise when a country attempts to implement and maintain a "competition policy" as a way of promoting economic growth and efficiency. The basic reading material will start with actual cases (most of them arising under U.S. antitrust law), and use those cases to probe the legal, economic and broad policy issues that the cases raise. This course is intended for non-law students; law students interested in the subject should take LAW 6101.
