The conference proceedings contained in this document explore several questions ranging from specific concerns with concentrated ownership and cross-ownership, the extent to which biases in market allocation decisions are driven by tax policy, by other public policies, or induced by other distortions in market structures, to more general questions of corporate governance and the efficiency of markets for corporate control. The papers are organized into the following general topics: dimensions of corporate concentration; rethinking the modern corporation; takeovers: determinants and effects; the financial sector; corporate power and influence; and public policy responses.

GIULIANO MUSSATI Why do mergers occur, which are their effects on social welfare and which is the best economic policy toward them? These three questions have been puzzling industrial economists since the end of the last century when the first great merger wave has come about in the US. They have returned at the centre of the stage of the theoretical and empirical economic research during the last decade when merger and acquisition activity became one of the most evident firms' activities in all industrialised countries, being fostered by some general and country specific facts. These facts have been identified in the appearance of new financial instruments facilitating fund raising by firms, in the benevolent behaviour of the authorities in charge of competition policy during the Reagan administration in the US, while inter nal market completion has become a strong incentive for European firms to reach a true continental dimension in the UE through external growth. However a robust and univocal answer to these questions has not yet been found in spite of its importance not only from the theoretical point of view, but also from the normative one. In fact the correct identification of firms' motivations in pursuing merger and acquisition operations and of their consequences on social welfare would help the choice by administra tive authorities of different possible options in competition and industrial policies.

Discusses the appropriateness of mergers such as acquisitions of Conoco and Marathon Oil Corporation and of their impact on the American economy. The author argues in favour of a natural government merger policy. He believes that mergers do not result in an excessive concentration of the American economy, that the present restrictive policy is at odds with that of the countries with which the U.S. competes, that mergers may allow American companies to become large enough to compete effectively in international trade and improve the management of poorly managed assets.

As a veteran of both the Bureau of Economics of the Federal Trade Commission and the Senate Subcommittee on Antitrust and Monopoly during the 1960s, author Blair is an advocate. His advocacy of his position is clear, concise, and understandable: he favors strong antitrust laws and the stricter application of those laws to existing corporate structures, and this is his argument. First, it defines and discusses four types of economic concentration-market, vertical, conglomerate, and aggregate. Second, high concentration (as opposed to diffusion of control) is shown to be neither the necessary nor the "natural" state of the economy because "centrifugal" forces (eventual diseconomies of scale, growth, and technological change) constantly are chipping away at dominance and ossification. Third, it argues that the primary causes of high and rising concentration of various kinds are neither natural nor technological imperatives (economies of scale, technological change): rather, they are artificial and unnecessary "centripetal" factors, the most important being mergers, acquisitions, TV advertising, predation, and anticompetitive government policies of various kinds. The result, therefore, is a work rich in empirical information and skillful in interpreting and verifying new data and statistical approaches; moreover, it integrates a substantial quantity of data never attempted in this area in the past. In this sense it is an excellent contribution. No topic considered has been shortchanged, the treatment is competent. But the effort to cover the entire waterfront leaves several urgent questions: What can be done and where? How may we attempt new approaches to our subject? How may we first better convince the general public and Congress that, indeed, a strong antitrust policy is desirable?

The modern era of competition law in New Zealand began with the Commerce Act 1986. Since then, a steady and impressive corpus of case law had traversed all the usual major areas of antitrust law: cartels, resale price maintenance, exclusive dealing, tying, group boycotts, monopolization, mergers and acquisitions, exempted sectors, and the role of economic evidence. This volume explains the rationale for the various major reforms, the ongoing contestation between the Harvard and Chicago Schools of antitrust, and traces the developments of key concepts over the last 34 years. This title also explores systemic issues such as how well has New Zealand moulded its own competition law whilst nonetheless selectively drawing upon the policies, case law, and wisdom of foreign jurisdictions; how effectively has it faced the challenge of adapting its fledgling competition law to the reality of being a small, deregulated, open, and distant economy; and how successful was the application of competition law to utilities in the experimental era of 'light handed regulation'. Written by a New Zealand competition expert, this detailed, original, and comprehensive chronicle of New Zealand's competition law and policy draws together the common threads that mark the modern era and offers some predictions about how the next decades of New Zealand competition law might unfold.

The present two volumes contain the essays and part of the discussions as presented at the conference on Mainstreams in Industrial Organiza tion, held at the University of Amsterdam, 21-23 August 1985. The thema was chosen because the field of studies commonly designated "industrial organization" in the Anglo-Saxon countries, or "market theory" in Continental Europe, has experienced important alterations during the past decade. Partly this reflects changing theoretical views inside the field, in which shifts in the core concepts have occurred and different emphasis is laid on time-honoured views and results. Partly, critical views have been voiced from outside the field. As in all open scientific debate, they have to be weighed and, if necessary, taken into account. Partly also, diver gent developments in thinking between the Anglo-Saxon, European and Japanese areas need to be considered, because both the problems and the ways of approaching them still differ. The variety of views, theori~s and results is testimony to the vitality of this field of economics; variety is generated by the creative endeavours, from which the chaff is being beaten out by critical discussions. That is especially true for the concept of competition itself, which industrial organization economists are debating intensively.
