This book provides edited selections of primary source material in the intellectual history of competition policy from Adam Smith to the present day. Chapters include classical theories of competition, the U.S. founding era, classicism and neoclassicism, progressivism, the New Deal, structuralism, the Chicago School, and post-Chicago theories. Although the focus is largely on Anglo-American sources, there is also a chapter on European Ordoliberalism, an influential school of thought in post-War Europe. Each chapter begins with a brief essay by one of the editors pulling together the important themes from the period under consideration.
This text provides a comprehensive and succinct treatment of the history, structure, and behaviour of the various US institutions that enforce antitrust laws. It also draws comparisons with the structure of institutional enforcement outside the US, and it considers the possibility of creating international antitrust institutions.
Nell Hatley, a thirty-something law professor at an Ohio university, is mostly concerned about getting tenure, until the day a female law student enters a faculty meeting and starts shooting. One professor dies, another is wounded. The police find three names scribbled on a note in the shooter's pocket--the two victims and Nell's. When the official investigation is mysteriously suppressed, Nell pushes ahead to identify the shooter's motive. Aided by her loyal but intrusive boyfriend, a D.C. lawyer, Nell uncovers the dark secrets of a lawsuit over a Monet painting--and a conspiracy of theft, fraud, and murder dating back to World War II. Amid growing threats, Nell must confront a childhood friend's sexual abuse and insecurities about her competence as a law professor. A fast-paced thriller, Girl with Egg Basket blends elements of suspense, mystery, academic politics, and humor.
