In treating Heinrich Kronstein's influence on United States antitrust law, we encounter a situation quite different from many other in which German emigre jurists operated.

Ordoliberalism, a particular version of European Neo-Liberal thought, has played a central role in the relationship between competition law and trade policy with the European Union. The substantive component of this body of thought, which is based in Germany, emphasizes the importance of a...
