New GCLC Working Paper

leave a comment »

Dan Sokol (University of Florida), has a new GCLC Working Paper (02/09) entitled “Limiting Anti-Competitive Government Interventions That Benefit Special Interests.   Timely paper. Public restrictions of competition are  indeed an under-researched area of competition law.  In addition, in the current post-crisis context, governments are increasingly tempted to make use of heavy-handed regulatory instruments.

Should you have a draft paper that you would like to submit for publication in the GCLC WP series, please send it to me.
