Economists have begun to make much greater use of experimental methods in their research. This collection surveys these methods and shows how they can help us to understand firm behaviour in relation to various forms of competition policy.

Críticas:

Review of the hardback: 'This is a most timely book. The European Commission has heralded in the more economic approach to competition policy. While both (game) theory and econometrics have made headway in anti-trust territory, anti-trust practice has almost totally neglected the experimental evidence. This volume aptly combines survey articles with fresh evidence directly targeting standard topics in competition policy. It is highly recommended for experimental economists, industrial organization specialists, and anti-trust lawyers.' Christoph Engel, Max-Planck-Institute for Research on Collective Goods, Bonn, and University of Bonn

Review of the hardback: 'The coming of age of experimental economics is signified by the increased role it plays for policy making. Experiments and Competition Policy provides an in-depth overview of the diverse policy applications that can be studied in the laboratory, including collusion, mergers, price competition, and auction design. Hinloopen and Normann have done a superb job of collecting a broad array of frontier research. This work should prove a useful reference for academicians and practitioners for years to come.' Jacob K. Goeree, Caltech Social Science Experimental Laboratory (SSEL), Caltech

'... the volume at hand is best suited for the use as a reference work for scientific study. Not only the available experimental evidence, but also the related theoretical work is covered in a fairly comprehensive and easily accessible manner. ... an excellent starting point.' European Competition Law Review
