    By Shepard Goldfein and James Keyte | September 8, 2017

    Antitrust Trade and Practice columnists, Shepard Goldfein and James Keyte write: Big Data is a complex issue—different firms and individuals have different access to different sources of data, and want to use that data in different ways.

    Presidential Power and Antitrust Politics: Part Two

    By Carl W. Hittinger 
and Tyson Y. Herrold | August 25, 2017

    Last month we discussed the role of the presidency in formulating ­antitrust policy, pointing out the fallacy of the view that the Antitrust Division of the Department of Justice has historically been (or should be) completely independent of the White House.
