  • The Global Dominance of European Competition Law Over American Antitrust Law
    'Center for Open Science', 2019
    Co-Authors: Bradford Anu, Chilton, Adam S., Linos Katerina, Weaver Alex
    Abstract:

    The world’s biggest consumer markets – the European Union and the United States – have adopted different approaches to regulating competition. This has not only put the EU and US at odds in high-profile investigations of anticompetitive conduct, but also made them race to spread their regulatory models. Using a novel dataset of competition statutes, we investigate this race to influence the world’s regulatory landscape and find that the EU’s competition laws have been more widely emulated than the US’s competition laws. We then argue that both “push” and “pull” factors explain the appeal of the EU’s competition regime: the EU actively promotes its model through preferential trade agreements and has an Administrative Template that is easy to emulate. As EU and US regulators offer competing regulatory models in domains as diverse as privacy, finance, and environmental protection, our study sheds light on how global regulatory races are fought and won

  • the global dominance of european competition law over american antitrust law
    Journal of Empirical Legal Studies, 2019
    Co-Authors: Anu Bradford, Adam S Chilton, Katerina Linos, Alexander Weaver
    Abstract:

    Although over 130 countries now have competition regimes, little is known about the form these laws take. Using a novel and highly detailed dataset of competition statutes around the world, which includes 171 variables on 36 critical dimensions, this article examines the relative influence of US and EU competition regimes in shaping the global regulatory landscape. We find that the EU is clearly winning this regulatory race, despite the fact that many ideas now considered central to antitrust doctrine originated in the United States. Both “push” and “pull” factors help explain this pronounced Europeanization: not only have the Europeans promoted their model much more actively through preferential trade agreements, but they have also created an Administrative Template that is particularly easy to emulate. As US and EU regulators offer competing regulatory models in domains as diverse as privacy, finance and the environment, our study sheds much needed empirical light on how global regulatory races are fought and won.
