Microsoft / Antitrust Law and Economics

Abstract: A 20 page research paper that explores the antitrust lawsuit to April 21, 1998 in terms of the Sherman Act, court transcripts, and monopolistic behavior. The writer argues that in addition to antitrust considerations, the economics of the issue must be considered, particularly in light of proposed regulation of the software industry. Both sides are presented and proposed resolutions explored, with a recommendation that whatever the outcome, that open competition be maintained. Bibliography lists 17 sources.
