Description

Deputy Assistant Attorney-General John W. Elias lays out the mission and culture of the Antitrust Division at the US Department of Justice, covering diversity in competition law, the new geometries of the US merger guidelines, and the recent AI workshop at Stanford. Plus vague promises and unfair trading practices; a hat-trick of competition and labour law complaints against FIFA; the ACCC's new merger surveillance team; and what the US election might mean for antitrust enforcement. All this and a bunch of goo with co-hosts Moya Dodd and Matt Rubinstein.
