摘要
One hot topic is whether Google has violated the antitrust laws. Another important topic is how behavioral economics can enrich antitrust policy. This article examines two implications of behavioral economics on antitrust monopolization law.The article first discusses trial-and-error learning as an entry barrier. This is timely given the current debate over the entry barriers of the search engine market. The article next discusses behavioral exploitation to maintain a monopoly. The behavioral economics literature can help explain the European Commissions tying claims against Microsoft, why the Commissions original remedy failed, and the benefits and risks of the Commissions remedy involving its subsequent prosecution of Microsoft over Internet browsers.
