Bainbridge on the Cuban Insider Trading Case

Wanted: NSF Law and Social Science Program Director

Last Spring, I had the pleasure of serving on the NSF Law and Social Science Advisory Panel.  It was an honor to be invited and a fantastic experience that gave me exposure to accomplished interdisciplinary scholars in fields and perspectives with which I rarely have the opportunity to interact.  The NSF is now seeking a ...

Inter-Agency Teleseminar Showdown

You may recall we’ve been blogging quite a bit about the FTC and DOJ scuffle over Section 2 (See here and here). On Thursday, December 11th, the ABA Antitrust Division is sponsoring a Teleseminar that will feature my former FTC colleague Ken Glazer (Deputy Director, Bureau of Competition, Federal Trade Commission), Bill Kolasky (WilmerHale, and ...

"This Liberal Will Be All About Socializing … Uhhh … Basically … Taking Over and the Government Running All of Your Companies"

That is from Maxine Waters (HT: Luke Froeb). It is increasingly difficult these days to figure out whether socialization/ nationalization is a threat or a promise. The clip is priceless. You can see her two colleagues getting a kick out of Waters’ rant (which starts about the 1:10 mark) in response to the assertion from ...

Global Competition Policy Symposium on Section 5

The newest issue in Global Competition Policy includes a symposium (disclosure: for which I was the senior editor) on Section 5 enforcement under the FTC Act. Contributors included Commissioner Rosch’s attorney advisor Kyle Andeer, Doug Melamed (WilmerHale) and Joe Sims. My views on the expansion of Section 5 in the standard setting context, at least ...

My Encounter With Rahm

The business section of yesterday’s New York Times included advice to President-elect Obama from a number of econ-types. Greg Mankiw, for example, exhorted Obama to heed the advice of his (quite capable) economic advisers and, in essence, govern from the center. I would concur. Accordingly, I was pleased to see Obama name Rep. Rahm Emanuel ... My Encounter With Rahm

Who Does Best on the GRE?

Greg Mankiw links to a chart which provides the evidence (or click here for the larger version). The answer is physics (1899), math (1877), computer science (1862) and, of course, economics (1857) … followed by a handful of engineering majors and philosophy. Though, as Brian Leiter has happily reported in the past, and is still ... Who Does Best on the GRE?

The Antitrust Rumormill …

So, now that the election is over, it must be time to start speculating as to who will fill what spots in the Obama administration. I already made some predictions about what an Obama antitrust regime might look like, but who will be running the show at the DOJ and the FTC? The Deal reports ... The Antitrust Rumormill …

Will This Be a Bull Market for Law and Economics?

Larry Ribstein thinks so. The argument is that current economic conditions have exposed the costs of economic naivete and that now is the time for rational and serious discourse about the costs and benefits of specific regulations: The last election has revealed clearly the costs of economic cluelessness. McCain’s floundering in the face of financial ... Will This Be a Bull Market for Law and Economics?

Antitrust under President Obama: "I will direct my administration to reinvigorate antitrust enforcement"

Danny Sokol makes some predictions about Post-Obama antitrust, and about my disappointment in what he perceives to be the likely direction of antitrust policy in the Obama administration: 1. increased challenges of mergers and monopolization cases, especially at DOJ 2. more consumer protection work at the FTC with a push to more expansive consumer rights ...
