Synopsis
Confronting the Trust Problem with clear history and practical insight
A rigorous examination of how monopolies form, why trust laws have struggled to reshape big business, and what real reform could look like. This edition traces the rise of consolidated capital and the effects on competition, politics, and everyday life.
This book surveys legal and economic history—from medieval mortmain to modern corporate power—and argues that sweeping federal action may be needed to restore balance. It weighs arguments for and against regulation, explores how large corporations shape markets, and considers possible remedies and policy paths for readers seeking a grounded view of a complex issue.- Understand how consolidation changes businesses, markets, and ownership.
- See why some anti-trust efforts have fallen short and what that means for reform.
- Learn how capital, regulation, and politics intersect in the fight over monopoly.
- Explore practical ideas about remedies and governance that could redefine corporate power.

Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the history and impact of anti-trust legislation in the United States, arguing that the Sherman Anti-Trust Act has failed in its stated purpose of promoting competition and protecting consumers. The author traces the evolution of capital and industrial development, from individual partnerships to corporations, arguing that the Sherman Act has been unable to effectively address the new challenges posed by these concentrated forms of capital. The book also examines the concept of "over-capitalization" and its potential effects on consumers. Ultimately, the author argues that the Sherman Act is outdated and ineffective, and that new approaches are needed to address the challenges posed by large corporations.
