 International Cooperation in Competition Law and Policy: What Can Be Achieved at the Bilateral, Regional, and Multilateral LevelsA Douglas Melamed Journal of International Economic Law, 1999, vol. 2, issue 3, 423-33 Abstract: The global economy has led to a rapid increase in the number of transnational antitrust problems, which arise when preventing or redressing competitive injury in one country requires dealing with conduct, witnesses or evidence in other countries. That, in turn, has made it increasingly important for national antitrust authorities to cooperate with one another. Cooperation can involve the sharing of knowledge about competition matters in general, as well as collaboration on specific antitrust cases, and could over time promote a common understanding on substantive antitrust principles. The United States has for many years provided technical assistance and cooperated on specific cases both formally and informally pursuant to bilateral arrangements with its counterparts in other countries and has participated in a variety of both regional and multinational for a dealing with competition issues.
