Abstract:
In this article, the author examines the development of antitrust law, focusing on the development of the law of monopolization. Analysis is divided into three chronological parts: early cases against trusts; cases during the World War II era challenging dominant firms in mature industries; and cases brought during the 1960s and the 1970s dealing with dominant firms in technologically complex industries. By way of illustration, the author discusses cases brought by competitors against IBM. Throughout the article, the author focuses on political, theoretical, and institutional factors influencing the development of antitrust law and to critique this development from both an institutional and a theoretical perspective.
