Abstract

This Article compares four jurisdictional approaches to anticompetitive behavior: (1) the U.S. “rule of reason” approach, (2) the multifaceted flexible approach under the Treaty Establishing the European Community, (3) the relatively strict Australian per se illegality approach, and (4) the less-developed antimonopoly regime in Japan.

Keywords: United States, European Union, Australia, Japan, International trade, Rule of reason, Treaty Establishing the European Union, Per se illegality, Antitrust law
