Abstract En

The article examines the historical trajectory and contemporary implications of the international antitrust regime proposed in the late 1990s and early 2000s. It delves into the motivations behind calls for harmonization of competition laws worldwide, driven by concerns over the power of multinational corporations and the challenges of regulating cross-border economic activity. While some advocated for a universal set of antitrust laws, others resisted, citing the need to account for diverse national contexts, particularly in the Global South. Despite the failure to establish a singular regime, the paper argues that diffusion of antitrust laws has led to convergence, albeit with complex implications for global governance and North-South relations.
