U.S. antitrust and the Internet: e-mail to 1,500 policymakers at the click of a 'mouse.'

Article Abstract:

Ralph Nader's group set up an Internet discussion list on the Microsoft monopoly during the investigative stage of the case, a strongly anti-Microsoft discussion group with a membership made up mainly software technicians and entrepreneurs. This membership knew a lot about computer science and very little about antitrust law. They were dismayed by a view that Microsoft might prevail in the case. Posts to the Internet disucssion group are given.

Efficiencies in merger cases: technological 'diffusion' as the cure for short-run monopoly pricing

Article Abstract:

Mergers and industrial consolidation may create monopolies and price increases but ultimately these mergers will force prices down while introducing important economic efficiencies. In the reinvented markeplace, diffusion will force monopoly prices lower and permanently low prices eventually will result. However, critics charge that this economic theory is flawed and politically-motivated.
