Beskrivning
Since it first came into existence, antitrust law has become progressively more technical both in its form and in its manner of enforcement. Yet technicalities and doctrines give covert and not neutral solutions to a crucial dilemma which is of fundamental importance: how much private power is needed to preserve economic freedom from the intrusion of public power, and how much public power is needed to prevent private power becoming a threat to the freedom of others? In this lucidly written and challenging book, Giuliano Amato draws on his wide experience to examine the character of this dilemma and the way in which it has been addressed by legislatures and courts in the US and in Europe. His observations on the history and the doctrines of antitrust law and his conclusions as to how successfully the dilemma is being managed by the super economies of Europe and the US challenge conventional thinking. They will also stimulate economists and lawyers as well as business and lay people to consider more closely the future of antitrust laws across the globe.

Recensioner i media

The text of this important book is lucid and the interesting analysis - political, economic and legal - is clearly stated. The citations of legal and economic literature are well chosen. Professor Amato's perceptive thoughts on the differences between US and EC competition law and their philosophical development are warmly welcomed. Valentine Korah European Competition Law Review September 2002 ... this book is in my view essential reading for anybody interested in antitrust practice and policy Damien J. Neven Journal of World Trade Law September 2002 The book is well written and develops a number of challenging ideas in an accessible way...Its major strength is in the depth of the research and the copious references...As a concise history of antitrust laws, the book is indispensable. The ideas which it develops are challenging and serve as a valuable balance to the mass of economic analysis which purports to explain antitrust. Angus MacCulloch The Modern Law Review Vol 62, 1999
