FOREWORD

The Section of Antitrust Law is pleased to present the Category

Management Antitrust Handbook. The Handbook is intended to explain

how category management works from a business standpoint and then to

address the economic and legal issues which can arise. The book is

directed to a non-legal as well as legal audience.

The Section is indebted to those who contributed to this Handbook.

This was a joint project of the Unilateral Conduct Committee and the

Civil Enforcement Committee. The Handbook would not have been

possible without the dedication and hard work of its project chairs,

editors, and authors, especially Gregory Huffman, Jay Levine, Julie

Soloway, and Albert Kim who guided the publication through to

completion.
