An Engrossing, Whirlwind Tour Through the Past, Present, and Potential Future of Antitrust
5 stars
Believe the hype - this book is extremely compelling. Wu reviews the history of antitrust in the US and its fundamental concern with excessive corporate power, then shows how the Chicago school worked to systematically subvert and dismantle that motivation. He then argues for an approach that in some ways brings antitrust back to those original goals, and despite being written 7 years ago these exhortations seem even more relevant today. Highly recommend
