Editorial Journal of Antitrust Enforcement, 2015, i1 doi: 10.1093/jaenfo/jnv017 Advance Access Publication Date: 1 June 2015 It gives us great pleasure to present to the reader this special issue of the Journal of Antitrust Enforcement on Chinese Competition Law. In publishing this special issue, we set out to achieve three main goals. First,we wanted to provide Chinese scholars an international platform to publish their schol- arship and air their thoughts on recent development in China. Second, we aimed to increase the collaboration between Chinese and Western scholars through joint re- search and discussion. Many of the articles in this issue have been co-authored. We hope the joint work on these papers provided valuable cross-border interaction be- tween academics, practitioners, and policy makers. Third, we wanted to increase the volume of scholarly writing on Chinese competition law in English and make it ac- cessible to JAE readers. The genesis of this special issue was a product of interactions among the three of us in August 2013 at the five-year Chinese Anti-Monopoly Law (AML) celebrations which was hosted in Beijing. After hosting an academic session with emerging Chinese schol- ars in law and economics, we introduced the project to the academics, practitioners, and competition officials who attended the event. We were fortunate to receive support from two distinguished professors who served as special advisors for this issue: Professor Huang Yang (UIBE) and Professor Wang Xiaoye (Chinese Academy of Social Sciences and Hunan University). Both have led the debate on the AML in China in recent years, and we are grateful for their contribution to the success of this Issue. The reader will also notice the addition of a guest editor to this Issue. Professor D Daniel Sokol has joined us as co-editor-in-chief of this special issue and has provided significant contributions to our efforts in Beijing and to the editorial work. The reader will find 13 articles in this special issue. Papers cover a wide spectrum of topics. Following an introductory chapter, which reviews the recent developments in Chinese competition law, the reader will find papers on horizontal and non-hori- zontal mergers, merger remedies, market power, antitrust economics, collusion, resale price maintenance, intellectual property rights, and consumer protection. We hope this range will provide an interesting and thought provoking account of the shaping of the Chinese competition regime. We also hope that this work will form the basis for future work into AML-related scholarship in law and economics. Ariel Ezrachi, William Kovacic and D.
