One of the most important antitrust cases in 50 years, U.S. vs. IBM, was filed in 1969 and dropped by the Justice Department in 1982. This economic analysis by participants for the defense argues that the IBM case failed not because the antitrust laws are obsolete, but because the government and its economists made major analytical errors throughout the case. The topics they discuss in this book, which grew from their studies and the trial testimony, range over the standard and important ones in an antitrust case charging single-firm monopolizing: market definition, market share, technical change, entry barriers, behavior (predation), and profitability. Folded, Spindled, and Mutilated is a Charles River Associates Study and seventh in The MIT Press series on the Regulation of Economic Activity, edited by Richard Schmalensee.

Derived from the renowned multi-volume International Encyclopaedia of Laws, this practical analysis of the law of contracts in Israel covers every aspect of the subject - definition and classification of contracts, contractual liability, relation to the law of property, good faith, burden of proof, defects, penalty clauses, arbitration clauses, remedies in case of non-performance, damages, power of attorney, and much more. Lawyers who handle transnational contracts will appreciate the explanation of fundamental differences in terminology, application, and procedure from one legal system to another, as well as the international aspects of contract law. Throughout the book, the treatment emphasizes drafting considerations. An introduction in which contracts are defined and contrasted to torts, quasi-contracts, and property is followed by a discussion of the concepts of 'consideration' or 'cause' and other underlying principles of the formation of contract. Subsequent chapters cover the doctrines of 'relative effect', termination of contract, and remedies for non-performance. The second part of the book, recognizing the need to categorize an agreement as a specific contract in order to determine the rules which apply to it, describes the nature of agency, sale, lease, building contracts, and other types of contract. Facts are presented in such a way that readers who are unfamiliar with specific terms and concepts in varying contexts will fully grasp their meaning and significance. Its succinct yet scholarly nature, as well as the practical quality of the information it provides, make this book a valuable time-saving tool for business and legal professionals alike. Lawyers representing parties with interests in Israel will welcome this very useful guide, and academics and researchers will appreciate its value in the study of comparative contract law.

We have been called a nation of villagers, and Mr. Strunsky in these sketches discourses in a friendly way on some of our village characteristics. He writes from the point of view of the man who has an uptown apartment, with rent just a trifle higher than he can afford, in Belshazzar court, and who travels daily to his place of business in Park Row via the subway. Occasionally the point of view of Emmeline is called in by way of reinforcement or contrast. In general it is with the street, the show, the game, and the night life of the city that he is concerned, but now and again it is the young son Harold who offers a fruitful subject for meditation.* * * * *"His book has that quality which is becoming rare: it is companionable." --Bookman"By his very lightness of style and his gentle grace of humor he makes 'Belshazzar court' a genuine interpretation of a place, a people and a life whose spirit has been utterly missed by many an ultra serious and portentous analyst. --Boston Transcript"Few have the power or the inclination to see In the complexities of modern city life the simplicity and kindliness of human nature, essentially the same everywhere, but that is the chief charm of these essays." --Dial"The rare quality of the book Is not so much the humor as the suggestive quality of the thought." --Nation"Delightful essays about New York City." --Library Bulletin

By a vote of 61 to 38, the Senate joined the House in declaring that "Congress approves...the North American Free Trade Agreement." The vote was virtually unnoticed, since the real battle over NAFTA was in the House. But there is a puzzle here. The President, the Framers assure us, "shall have Power, by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, to make Treaties, provided two thirds of the Senators present concur." Whatever happened to the Treaty Clause? Bruce Ackerman and David Golove tell the story of the Treaty Clause's being displaced in the twentieth century by a modern procedure in which the House of Representatives joins the Senate in the process of consideration, but simple majorities in both Houses suffice to commit the nation. This is called the Congressional-Executive Agreement, and is a response to a sea change in public opinion during and after World War II. This agreement substituted for a failed constitutional amendment that would have required all treaties to be approved by majorities in both Houses rather than by two-thirds of the Senate. The modern Congressional-Executive Agreement was self-consciously developed in order to make formal constitutional amendment unnecessary. So, is NAFTA constitutional? This book is reprinted from the Harvard Law Review .

"If a paternity test were done on South Africa's widely admired Constitution, whose DNA would come up? Is the Constitution just a beautiful piece of paper? If Oliver Tambo were alive today, walking around South Africa, would he be pleased with what he saw? In this riveting, direct account of the genesis of South Africa's Constitution, former Justice Albie Sachs answers these crucial questions. In Oliver Tambo's Dream, Sachs writes about the years he spent working under Tambo's leadership in exile preparing for a post-apartheid constitutional order in South Africa and about the extreme crises that were overcome during the post-1990 constitution-making process to arrive at the document we have today. Tackling the burning issues that face our country today, he argues that the Constitution is a framework for struggle and decolonization that can be used to bring about land reform and true equality"--

Heroic Defeats is a comparative investigation of how unions and firms interact when economic circumstances require substantial job loss. Using simple game theory to generate testable propositions about when these situations will result in industrial conflict, Professor Golden illustrates the theory in a range of situations between 1950 and 1985 in Japan, Italy, and Britain. Additionally, the author shows how the theory explains why strikes over job loss almost never occur in postwar unionized firms in the United States.
