applEcon Partner, Josh Palmer, published an article, “It’s High Tide Again in Internet Markets” in The Journal of the Antitrust, UCL and Privacy Section of the California Lawyers Association, Fall 2020, Vol. 30, No. 2.

In his article, Dr. Palmer briefly reviews the antitrust cases against Microsoft in the mid-1990s and subsequent antitrust lessons economists drew from these cases. He then discusses what these lessons, combined with commentary from economists currently analyzing digital platforms and competition, suggest about the next wave of antitrust cases in these markets.
