Abstract: Since at least the early 1990s, researchers have criticized the antitrust authorities' method for assessing the possible anticompetitive effects of mergers. Despite this, only recently, a method with a more sound economic foundation was included in the merger guidelines. We discuss how a sound economic foundation was developed and finally applied to merger control.
