Description

Understanding Antitrust and Its Economic Implications 8th Edition Christopher R. Leslie ISBN 9781531031268

This Understanding treatise presents a clear explanation of the core concepts of antitrust law. Over recent decades, the Supreme Court and lower federal courts have significantly reshaped antitrust doctrine, addressing new forms of anticompetitive behavior and integrating evolving economic theories. The eighth edition of Understanding Antitrust and Its Economic Implications provides a comprehensive overview of the current state of antitrust law while also tracing its historical roots, economic foundations, and doctrinal evolution.

This edition includes updates and expanded coverage in key areas, such as:

  • The direct-purchaser requirement

  • Proving agreements through circumstantial evidence

  • Summary judgment standards and applications

  • Quick-look analysis

  • Economic analysis of monopolization

  • Anticompetitive product design

  • Abuse of patents and other intellectual property rights

  • Refusals to deal

  • Price squeezes

  • Procompetitive justifications for anticompetitive conduct

  • Updated merger law analysis, including the 2023 Merger Guidelines

By combining legal doctrine with economic insight, this edition equips readers with both the conceptual and practical tools needed to understand and analyze antitrust issues in today’s complex marketplace.
