A number of important American industries have undergone a significant transformation from direct regulation to a market-oriented system, commonly referred to as deregulation. Recognized scholars examine seven of these industries - electricity, natural gas pipelines, telecommunications, railroads, airlines, hospitals and banking - to show how competition policy generally and merger policy in particular have performed. In addition, the EU experience of deregulation is compared to that in the US.
