The exercise of market power: Its treatment under the Australian and New Zealand statutes

The monopolisation sections of Australia's and New Zealand's antitrust statutes are unusual for the test by which they distinguish acceptable from unacceptable conduct: conduct is only proscribed if it is unlikely to be observed in a competitive market. This suggests that only inefficient conduct should be proscribed. However, the courts have flirted with, rather than embraced, this identification of competition with efficiency.     

The new right and the US economy in the 1980s: an assessment of the economic record of the Reagan administration

This paper discusses the new-right ideas underlying the victory and implementation of ‘Reaganomics’ and examines the economic record of the Reagan administration. Given the preeminence of supply-side economics in the USA in the 1980s, and the supply-side leanings of the Reagan government, attention is focused mainly upon supply-side ideas, policies and claims: although some assessment of monetarist propositions is also provided. In addition to the evaluation of new-right claims, however, a broader assessment of the Reagan administration's record is also undertaken which deals, inter alia, with inflation, growth, unemployment and the ‘twin deficits’. Within this evaluation the social impact of Reaganomics is highlighted as a counterpoint to the claimed economic successes of the Reagan years.

The Elasticity of Demand for Labour in Australia

The elasticity of demand for labour at the aggregate level is an important parameter for macroeconomic analysis. In particular, policy issues concerning the impact of wage falls on employment and unemployment hinge on the size of this parameter. It is argued in the present paper that previous work on the elasticity of demand for labour in Australia has been unsatisfactory in a number of ways. A new set of estimates is provided that are derived using a better methodology than before.
