• TITLE: Vertical Mergers, Raising Rivals’ Costs and Foreclosure in a Network Industry

  AUTHORS: Adekola Oyenuga

  KEYWORDS: Vertical Structure, Oligopoly, Antitrust Policy, Congestion Externalities, Network Effects

  JOURNAL NAME: Modern Economy, Vol.5 No.4, April 22, 2014

The focus of antitrust opinion in assessing potential vertical mergers should therefore be on the longer-term effects of such mergers.
