Abstract

This special issue examines empirically the determinants of cartel formation, stability, and duration with the use of international evidence. Levenstein and Suslow examine the US experience; Zhou considers the problem of recidivism in cartel formation in Europe; Ghosal and Sokol examine both US and European experience with a focus on US policy changes; and Feinberg et al. analyze a recent entrant into strong antitrust enforcement: South Korea.
