41 Antitrust Bull. 1 (1996)

handle is hein.journals/antibull41 and id is 1 raw text is: The Antitrust Bulletin/Spring 1996 Antitrust under the watchful eye of a conservative Congress BY DEBORAH K. OWEN* Commitment to the fundamental principles underlying our federal antitrust laws has been blessedly bipartisan. Since Theodore Roo- sevelt embraced the Sherman Act, the antitrust laws have been enforced with great vigor, both by Democratic and Republican administrations, and on the legislative front, both parties have claimed credit for various initiatives, as well as intense oversight. This being the case, is there really, then, anything to discuss with respect to the impact of the stunning election of 1994 on the shaping and implementation of the federal antitrust laws? I would argue in the affirmative, and quite emphatically. The issue is not one of party, but indeed of philosophy concerning the role of the government with respect to business, and more importantly, the creative individual. * Partner in the Washington, D.C. office of Arent Fox Kintner Plotkin & Kahn, and a former Commissioner of the Federal Trade Com- mission. AUTHOR'S NOTE: This article was prepared for a symposium on antitrust policy for the Western Economic Association, 70th Annual Conference in San Diego, California, on July 5-9, 1995, in a session cosponsored by the Antitrust Bulletin. @ 1996 by Federal Legal Publications, Inc.
