Speaker: Jamie Grischkan (NYU Fellow, Assistant Professor at Arizona State Law starting in fall 2022)

Title: 'Banking and the Antimonopoly Tradition: The Long Road to the Bank Holding Company Act'

Abstract:

In the wake of a new challenge to the reigning antitrust paradigm of efficiency and consumer welfare, the relationship between monopoly power and democratic governance is once again a focus of political and scholarly discourse. The extent to which private institutions with market power may distort the political process and the role antitrust law should play in combating those distortions is at the center of these new debates. This talk focuses on one such institution, the bank holding company, and the movement to prevent its monopolistic expansion in the decades surrounding World War II.
