Description

United States Antitrust Law and Economics 4th Edition Einer Elhauge ISBN 9781636597133

This book offers a contemporary approach to U.S. antitrust law, emphasizing the economic analysis that drives modern antitrust reasoning. It presents these concepts clearly and accessibly, minimizing technical jargon so that both law students and practitioners can grasp the underlying economics.

Cases are carefully edited to highlight the facts and issues succinctly, and the text provides detailed answers to complex questions while demonstrating how to apply modern antitrust economic analysis to real-world scenarios. At roughly 900 pages, the book is compact yet comprehensive, covering the full range of antitrust topics and generating rich discussion for classroom engagement.

The text integrates key Supreme Court antitrust decisions and agency guidelines throughout. The merger section emphasizes current agency practices and theories, illustrating them with selected cases rather than outdated Supreme Court rulings that no longer reflect contemporary enforcement.

The fourth edition incorporates recent developments, including NCAA v. Alston, Ohio v. American Express Co., and United States v. AT&T, Inc. (the AT&T-Time Warner merger), as well as the 2020 Vertical Merger Guidelines and their subsequent withdrawal, offering thorough analysis of these important updates.
