• The Growing Influence of Economics and Economists On Antitrust: An Extended Discussion

Over the past two to three decades economics has played an increasingly important role in the development of U.S. antitrust enforcement and policy. This essay first reviews the major facets of U.S. antitrust enforcement and next reviews the ways in which economics - starting from a low base - has grown in importance in antitrust. The essay then highlights three antitrust areas in which the influence of economics has had the greatest influence: merger analysis, vertical relationships, and predatory pricing. The essay concludes with the identification of four antitrust areas where further economics analysis could have high returns.

• Other Models for Labor-Management Dispute Resolution: The Wisconsin Experiment

Twenty-two years ago leaders from the Wisconsin Department of Labor Relations and leaders from the Wisconsin State Employees Union, AFSCME Council 24, saw a need to create better ways to more efficientiy handle their large backlog of routine grievances. Thus they mutually crafted and adopted special arbitration procedures that they have used ever since. When the parties created these customized procedures they obviously believed that doing so would be mutually advantageous. Now, given the passage of time, it is appropriate to ask whether the parties' original vision has been realized. To answer that question advocates, who now have substantial experience using these procedures, were polled concerning their experience with the special arbitration procedures and whether they supported the...
