Regulating Collusion
系统考察了规制合谋的全过程,包括侦查、起诉、企业与监管机构通过同意令进行的谈判、证据生产,以及在无法直接处理合谋时可能采取的遏制措施,并强调按法院实际运作方式建模对改进规制至关重要。
We attempt to provide a systemic view of the process of regulating collusion, including detection and prosecution as well as bargaining between firms and regulators via consent orders, the production of evidence, and containment measures that may be taken if collusion cannot be addressed with more direct means. In addition, we try to do justice to the peculiarities of the legal system: Modeling the courts as they are, rather than as economists think they should be, is essential for economic analysis to improve the way collusion is regulated.
