Antitrust (20629). 4 units. The course will study the development, interpretation, and application of the antitrust laws of the United States, specifically the Sherman Act, Clayton Act, FTC Act and other laws designed to protect consumers by ensuring competition in the marketplace. Specific topics include dominant firm behavior and exclusionary conduct, agreements among competitors, mergers, and vertical agreements (such as agreements between a supplier and a distributor). The course will examine Supreme Court case law, recent and influential lower court decisions, and modern enforcement practice at the Federal Trade Commission and United States Department of Justice. As economic concepts are integrated throughout the course, some background in economics may be helpful. The class will begin with a brief primer on the most important economic concepts we will use in the course in order to make the course more accessible to interested students. Self-scheduled examination (web). A. Wickelgren.
