<p>This new casebook presents a globalized approach to antitrust law and provides an understanding of the main antitrust regimes that apply throughout the world today. Whether in business, law, or government, we can no longer content ourselves with understanding only the antitrust and competition law of one nation. The authors present a truer picture of the overall regime of competition law that now faces multinational market players through a combination of laws from varying nations in actual application. The authors have structured the book to enhance a teacher's ability to take a modular approach. Thus, depending on the assignments the teacher wishes to make out of the book, the book can be used to either: (a) to replace the basic Antitrust course with a course fully covering the relevant US and EC laws that regulate global market conduct, (b) to teach a course that fully covers U.S. antitrust law and adds only readings on selected topics in EC competition law, or (c) to teach an advanced course in EC competition law.</p>

The 2007 Supplement will include several important new cases, including the U.S. Supreme Court decisions in Weyerhauser (on predatory buying claims), Twombly (on standards for pleading an antitrust conspiracy), Credit Suisse (on the extent to which securities law creates an implicit antitrust exemption), and Leegin (overruling the per se rule against vertical minimum price fixing). EU competition cases include British Airways (dismissing British Airways appeal in loyalty discount case), France T.l.com (upholding Commission decision finding that France T.l.com abused its dominant position on the French market for Internet access), GlaxoSmithKline (annulling in part the decision prohibiting Glaxo from selling its medicines at different prices according to the place of reimbursement).

<p>This casebook presents a modern approach to understanding U.S. antitrust law, illuminating the economic analysis that dominates modern antitrust analysis in a straightforward way that minimizes technical jargon and makes the underlying economic concepts accessible to a broad audience. The cases are carefully edited to present the facts and issues clearly and succinctly, with the focus on extensive questions that probe those issues and show how to apply modern antitrust economic analysis to them. The result is a book that is quite compact, fewer than 800 pages, but covers the full waterfront of antitrust issues and generates plenty of multi-layered points and ideas to fill a class. All the recent Supreme Court antitrust cases are fully incorporated into the structure of the book, as are all the relevant agency guidelines. The merger section focuses on modern agency practices and merger theories, and selected cases that illustrate them, rather than on outdated Supreme Court cases that no longer describe current merger enforcement.</p>
