Competition and Globalization in Developing Economies (New York, October 28, 2016)

This article explores the proposed modifications to the Antitrust Guidelines the U.S. Department of Justice’s Antitrust Division and the Federal Trade Commission and compares it with the approaches of other jurisdictions.
