| Inhalt | Through this experience a number of specific benefits will result. First, at a very general level, students will gain an enhanced understanding of when markets work and when markets fail. This deeper understanding of markets, in turn, provides the relevant benchmark against which to judge appropriate and inappropriate government policies toward business. Second, a more specific set of benefits flow from a detailed study of antitrust and regulatory policies. These policies shape industry structure and, therefore, strategy in many industries. Specific examples include recent and lively debates in the United States and around the world regarding mergers, monopolization, broadband access to the Internet, line of business restrictions in the telecommunications industry, and privatization and deregulation of the electric utility industry. Finally, the specific cases discussed will focus on active and visible "new economy" industries. An improved exposure to these industries enriches and broadens business knowledge. |
| Lernziele | The purpose of this course is to provide an interactive learning experience that highlights the economic, legal and policy foundations of competition law, especially focusing on monopolization and merger policies. The course will consist of both lectures and student participation. |
