Antitrust and Innovation: Syllabus for my Fall 2007 Course
Here is the (draft) syllabus for the course on Antitrust and Innovation, which I will teach at the Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law this fall. While there are many excellent casebooks on antitrust on the one hand and IP on the other, there is precious little teaching material focusing specifically on the antitrust/IP interface. (One notable exception is Gary Myers, The Intersection of Antitrust and Intellectual Property (2007).) In selecting materials for the course, I tried to give roughly equal weight to:
- Bedrock case law
- Emerging case law (e.g., exclusion via DRM, DMCA)
- Agency practice (e.g., IP2 report) and mainstream scholarship
- Radical critics of the intellectual property regime.
