Monopolization and Dominance Handbook 2nd Edition ISBN 9781641059091

The antitrust treatment of monopolizing conduct has long been a source of uncertainty and debate. This revised and updated second edition of The Monopolization and Dominance Handbook provides a comprehensive overview of how such conduct is addressed under United States antitrust law, with particular emphasis on areas of ambiguity and evolving interpretation. It also offers a comparative perspective by examining how similar issues are approached in jurisdictions outside the United States.

The handbook focuses on the antitrust rules and principles governing unilateral conduct by firms with substantial market power—known in the United States as monopolization law—and contrasts the approaches of U.S. courts and enforcement agencies with those of their international counterparts.

The book opens with an examination of the economic principles underlying monopolization law, followed by an analysis of monopoly power, the first element of a monopolization claim. It then turns to the second—and often most contentious—element: unlawful monopolizing conduct. Subsequent chapters address the related offenses of attempted monopolization and conspiracy to monopolize. The handbook concludes with a discussion of enforcement mechanisms and the ongoing challenges of designing effective remedies for monopolization, an area that remains the subject of significant debate.
