This book presents a globalized approach to antitrust law and economics. On all major topics, the book presents the leading cases from both the US and EU law and summarizes the antitrust laws of all the nations with the world’s leading GDPs. The cases are carefully edited to present the facts and issues clearly and succinctly, and this third edition completely revamps the book to include detailed textual answers to all the tough questions and details how to apply modern antitrust analysis to the cases, in a straightforward way that minimizes technical jargon and makes the underlying economic concepts accessible to a broad audience. In addition to adding detailed answers to the questions, the third edition updates the book to incorporate recent developments, including the U.S. decisions in Actavis, North Carolina Dental, Meritor, and Eisai, as well as EU decisions and judgments, such as Cartes Bancaires, Intel, Lundbeck, and Post Danmark, and a myriad of updates to the antitrust laws of all the other nations with the world’s leading GDPs.
