Monopolization: past, present, future
Article Abstract:
There are a number of reasons for the failure of the courts to cope with cases on monopolization. More is known about the pro- or anti-competitive effects of some practices than others, and the necessarily somewhat arbitrary selection of a matter for litigation may place before the courts an economic practice about which not much is known. Juries are not used to dealing with litigation this complex, and the decentralization of the power to act among many federal courts and the FTC complicates matters further.

Article Abstract:
Joint purchasing arrangements of competitors raise antitrust questions in the modern legal environment. Legal analysis will probably make use of the rule of reason, although per se analysis could occur in situations similar to Northwest Wholesale Stationers, Inc v Pacific Stationery and Printing Co. To avoid the appearance of collusion, such agreements should be carefully analyzed.
