This extremely valuable new book offers an in-depth proposal for an international merger control regime that is firmly grounded in and supported by a framework of economic and legal theory. It arrives at its conclusions along three major avenues:
A special chapter is devoted the complex custodial role of the World Trade Organization, both in its present activity and as it is envisioned in the various proposals.
Globalization and the Limits of National Merger Control Laws takes a giant step toward breaking down one of the last and most intransigent barriers to global free trade. It will be avidly studied and put to use by business lawyers and policymakers everywhere, and will quickly take its place as a fundamental work for teachers and students of international trade and international relations.
