Antitrust & Consumer Protection
An error-cost approach, informed by empirical, evidence-based analysis
About the Research Program
ICLE’s antitrust and consumer protection research agenda emphasizes an empirical, evidence-based approach, informed by a decision theory (“error cost”) mode of analysis. Our scholars evaluate the social costs and benefits of proposed interventions, focusing in particular on how institutions affect the appropriateness and the effectiveness of antitrust enforcement.Spotlights
