It appears that China may be very close to passing its Anti-Monopoly Law (HT: Danny Sokol). Like many others, I’ve been following these developments (see, e.g., the ABA’s comments on the proposed law here). I will also be taking a trip out to China sometime later this year and so am interested in learning as much as possible about antitrust regulation in China as it occurs now as well as obstacles to its implementation under the new revised law. Along those lines, I recently read two quite informative papers and thought I would post the links here for those interested:
- Bruce M. Owen, Su Sun, and and Wentong Zheng, China’s Competition Policy Reforms: The Antimonopoly Law and Beyond (Stanford Institute for Economic Policy Research Working Paper).
- Eleanor M. Fox, An Anti-Monopoly Law for China — Scaling the Walls of Protectionist Government Restraints (published in the Antitrust L.J.)
See also China Law Prof Blog. If anybody has recommendations regarding informative material on these topics, please leave them in the comments or e-mail me.
