This Just In: United States v. Apple: Competition in America

October 22nd, 2019 by becassidy


C|M|LAW’s own Professor Chris Sagers’ new book United States v. Apple: Competition in America is the latest feature in our This Just In series. Professor Sagers is a nationally renowned expert on antitrust law who has testified before the U.S. Congress. His articles have appeared in the Georgetown Law Journal, UCLA Law Review, and other leading journals. He has been quoted in the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Cleveland Plain Dealer, The Huffington Post, and National Public Radio, and he is a frequent panelist and lecturer. Law students may know Professor Sagers for his Antitrust: Examples and Explanations study aid.

In 2012 the Department of Justice accused Apple and five book publishers of conspiring to fix ebook prices. The evidence overwhelmingly showed an unadorned price-fixing conspiracy that cost consumers hundreds of millions of dollars. Yet before, during, and after the trial, there were many that sided with the defendants. The author argues that Americans have long been ambivalent about competition. Antitrust law has been used to promote competition, not stop competition.

A great interview with Professor Sagers by Global Competition Review on United States v. Apple can be found here.
