Short Title: | Antitrust & Regulatn |
Description: | The course studies the influence of laws and regulations on the behavior of firms, focusing on two types of government intervention in the market: antitrust law and economic regulation. Antitrust laws define the rules by which firms must compete. Economic regulation more tightly constrains the actions of firms, requiring that they obtain approval to set prices and/or enter new markets. The focus is on current topics in both areas, including antitrust cases against Microsoft and deregulation of telecommunications and electricity. |
