The following data represents a comprehensive survey of current antitrust regimes throughout the world.  The original texts of individual statutes in each country were examined for the presence of various elements.  Each included country receives an individual report here that indicates the presence or absence of these various elements in the country’s statutes.  The presence of an element is accompanied by a short explanation and/or citation to the applicable statute.  The elements themselves are defined [[Index Definitions|here]].  Some definitions are broad and could be divided into subcategories, in these cases, detailed comments are provided.  Each report also includes a numerical score for comparison across countries and regions, or for empirical analysis.

Antitrust World Reports - Professor Keith N. Hylton

AntitrustWorldWiki.com is a collaborative database covering antitrust laws around the world. Its purpose is to provide information on the key provisions of antitrust laws in a manner that enables users of this wiki to compare antitrust enforcement regimes around the world. We will expand the site to include new information and to enable users to post comments and observations.

Authors

Keith N. Hylton, a professor of law at Boston University, has published numerous articles in American law journals and peer-reviewed law and economics journals. His antitrust textbook, Antitrust Law: Economic Theory and Common Law Evolution, was published by Cambridge University Press in 2003. View full faculty profile.

Research Assistants

In addition to their own research, some of the authors have relied on translations and additional research by Boston University graduate and law students, especially Dena Milligan and Andrea Tkacikova.

Special thanks to Matt Grayson for designing the site logo.

Country Reports

The following data represents a comprehensive survey of current antitrust regimes throughout the world. The original texts of individual statutes in each country were examined for the presence of various elements. Each included country receives an individual report here that indicates the presence or absence of these various elements in the country’s statutes. The presence of an element is accompanied by a short explanation and/or citation to the applicable statute. The elements themselves are defined here. Some definitions are broad and could be divided into subcategories, in these cases, detailed comments are provided. Each report also includes a numerical score for comparison across countries and regions, or for empirical analysis.
