National Security Review Of Foreign Mergers And Acquisitions Of Domestic Companies In China And The United States, Kenneth Y. Hui
National Security Review Of Foreign Mergers And Acquisitions Of Domestic Companies In China And The United States, Kenneth Y. Hui
Cornell Law School Inter-University Graduate Student Conference Papers
China’s recently enacted Anti-Monopoly Law has received much academic attention. In particular, many articles and comments have been written about Article 31 of the Anti-Monopoly Law, a provision on national security review of foreign mergers and acquisitions of domestic companies. The provision has often been labelled as draconian and protectionist. This paper argues that Article 31 is not necessarily so. Article 31 is actually, to a large extent, in line with the national security provisions found in liberal economies. By taking a comparative approach, this paper will demonstrate the similarities between the national security laws in China and the United …

Much of antitrust law (in the U.S.) or trade practices law (in Australia) is about “exclusionary conduct,” things that large firms do to acquire an even larger share of the market or to preserve their large market share from being eroded by smaller rivals or new entrants.

In Australia, the main vehicle is Section 46 which, generally speaking, prohibits the misuse of market power. The main purpose of this paper …
The Quiet Revolution In U.S. Antitrust Law, George Hay
The Quiet Revolution In U.S. Antitrust Law, George Hay
Cornell Law Faculty Publications
In this paper, I report on a series of recent decisions in antitrust cases by the U.S. Supreme Court. While each decision, read separately, may be only of moderate interest (even to a U.S. audience), the slate of decisions, looked at in its entirety, conveys a significant message, and one that may have meaning for scholars and practitioners in Australia and other jurisdictions outside the U.S. I would suggest that a quiet revolution is occurring in which the arguments economists have been making for nearly fifty years have suddenly been embraced by both the left and the right on the …
Antitrust Analysis Of B2b Transaction, Akira Inoue
Antitrust Analysis Of B2b Transaction, Akira Inoue
Cornell Law School Inter-University Graduate Student Conference Papers
B2B is a business-to-business market place that uses internet to connect each other business. It has gotten a lot more attention recently in Japan as well as in the U.S. because it is possible to lower the procurement costs of raw material and accomplish several procompetitive effects such as communication efficiencies. However, in spite of these pro transactional natures of B2B, it could also cause anticompetitive effects on market place. In other words, the fact that buyers communicate easily through the internet means they could easily form a cartel or conclude an agreement to restrain the free competition and it …
