This is an extraordinary collection of essays, most previously available only in Chinese, by the leading world authority on Chinas Anti-Monopoly Law. They are necessary reading for a holistic understanding of the law as a unique product of its history, its purposes and foundations, and its early applications. Probably no other scholar could produce such a thoughtful, clear, and both theoretically and practically helpful collection.
- Eleanor M. Fox, New York University School of Law, US

Chinas Anti-Monopoly Law (AML) is one of the youngest and most influential antitrust laws in the world today. This book aims to provide a better understanding of the evolution of Chinas AML to the international community, through a collection of essays from the most prominent antitrust scholar in China, Professor Xiaoye Wang.

Xiaoye Wang provides a unique and invaluable insider perspective into how China and its incipient antitrust regime work. This book therefore serves as a key reference text, which comprehensively outlines the historical background of Chinas enactment of the AML, engages in comparative legal analysis to explain the basic contents of the law, analyses its existing problems, and considers the various challenges it will face in implementation. This book also records the AMLs difficult legislative journey, and reflects upon the views and different perspectives that the Chinese society has on the market economy, market competition, and other important theoretical questions.

Antitrust practitioners and in-house lawyers, academics and policymakers alike will be interested in this book. China has become too important an antitrust jurisdiction, and too important a market, for any person with an interest in antitrust to ignore.
