The paper develops a framework to enforce anti-predation rules that explicitly takes the intervention stage into … account. In particular, it is proposed to improve predation enforcement by focusing on two channels: refining the current … regime, and amending it. With respect to the refinement of the current predation enforcement regime, criteria for the …

This paper studies the interaction between the incentives for predation and mergers. I show that the incentive for … predation in an oligopoly is limited by the subsequent competition for the prey. This bidding competition is expecially fierce … prey's assets, rather than just its financial viability. The paper also demonstrates that predation may be preferred to an …
