Host Stacy Mitchell is joined by Harry First, law professor and co-director of New York University's Competition, Innovation, and Information Law Program. They chat about how competition policy has become captured by technocratic lawyers and economists, and strayed from its roots as a political movement for economic justice. They also discuss: The movement to “depoliticize” antitrust, and how decisions about how to enforce the law are always political on some level How State Attorneys General can intervene to stop mergers when the FTC and DOJ refuse to intervene The increasing number of students enrolling in antitrust classes What can be done, and what is already being done, to reinvigorate antitrust enforcement “Everyone uses Amazon, everyone uses Google…this is not something that's esoteric or removed from peoples' lives. This is, particularly for the students we see, an integral part of their lives. They're concerned about [monopoly power].” Related Resources Harry First Antitrust's Democracy Deficit by Harry First and Spencer Weber Waller Woodstock Antitrust by Michael H. Belzer The Microsoft Antitrust Cases: Competition Policy for the Twenty-first Century by Andrew I. Gavil and Harry First ILSR's Anti-Monopoly Resources Transcript Zach Freed: Hello and welcome to Building Local Power. I'm Zach Freed. Stacy Mitchell: And I'm Stacy Mitchell. Zach Freed: Today on the show we have a discussion between Stacy and professor Harry First of New York University law school. Harry is both a professor of law and a co-director of NYU's competition innovation and information law program. Professor First is the author of several books and essays on antitrust, including one in particular called Antitrust Democracy Deficit with coauthor Spencer Weber Waller. Stacy sat down with Professor First to talk about that essay and what can be done to make up for antitrust laws democratic deficit. Just starting, one thing that stood out to me was how candid Harry First was about the need for democratic participation in this area of law. Stacy Mitchell: Yeah, he's really got, I think an interesting analysis in that article and we hear about it in the podcast about how antitrust law has become more and more the domain of economists in this really highly technical expertise. And as it's it gone in that direction, ordinary people have been more and more excluded and the broader public purposes of antitrust law have been lost and kind of gone, it's all gone behind closed doors. Zach Freed: Another thing that stood out to me was how forthright Professor First was about the discussion of values and how it's impossible to “politicize” antitrust law because you're taking into account value judgments when you make decisions about who gets what. Yeah. That was another thread that also came up with our conversation with Professor Sanjukta Paul in our last podcast. Stacy Mitchell: Yeah. I think these two episodes actually pair really well together and you're right, that was a common thread in both of them. And one of the things I learned a lot in this conversation with some of the details of history. And so one of the things a Professor First talks about is how Robert Bork, who we all know is a person who kind of appended antitrust law and helped to really neutralize it or even turn it on its head. And Robert Bork very directly said, “Antitrust is very political.” In today's time, when people argue for stronger antitrust or that policy should incorporate a broader set of democratic values, the pushback from the establishment is often well you're just trying to make it political. And the smarter, more accurate thing to recognize is that it's already political. Stacy Mitchell: The question is, which values does it serve and whose values does it serve? One of the other things I thought was kind of interesting as just a historical fact that came up in this conversation, was that Harry First notes that in the 80s when these huge monumen...
