The Impact of Horizontal Mergers on Competition: A Literature Survey
A large number of
studies have been devoted to the effects of horizontal mergers on competition.
This survey intends to review some selected studies about the effects of
competition on horizontal mergers with a special attention given the horizontal
integration. One of the important results obtained from this literature survey
is that the findings of many researches have largely been controversial due to
the different approaches and the time periods used in their studies. In these
studies, even though it has been proved that horizontal mergers have negative
effects on competition, it is not possible to make any precise comment on the
dimension of this effect
