“There’s literature that wouldn’t have existed but for this antitrust moment,” said Geoffrey A. Manne, founder and president of the International Center for Law and Economics, a right-leaning think tank that has railed against DOJ and FTC efforts to fundamentally reshape antitrust enforcement, including through pushing back against the power of Big Tech.
Manne said it’s hard to say how much of a lasting effect the change in public zeitgeist will have on antitrust enforcement, and it’s hard to separate Khan and Kanter’s efforts from the moment itself. But Biden’s enforcers, he said, “gave it momentum that it wouldn’t have had.”
