Professor John Newman recently co-authored “Antitrust Law in the Online Economy: Selected Cases and Materials” with Mark R. Patterson and Nicolo Zingales. The third edition added Newman and Zingales as co-authors and is significantly expanded, reflecting the greatly increased importance of and enforcement activity around online commerce. The casebook includes more secondary materials and more European materials than is usual, given that the EU and its member states have been at the forefront of antitrust enforcement in these areas. It also provides additional context for U.S. antitrust students or lawyers to appreciate the European materials.
Newman has served as deputy director of the Federal Trade Commission Bureau of Competition and as a trial attorney with the U.S. Department of Justice Antitrust Division. He currently sits on the advisory boards for the American Antitrust Institute and the Institute for Consumer Antitrust Studies, is an assistant editor of the Antitrust Law Journal, and was a fellow with the Thurman Arnold Project at Yale.
