PREFACE

The transportation industries—motor, rail, air, and ocean shipping—

face myriad regulatory and antitrust issues. The Transportation Antitrust

Handbook is designed to provide an in-depth review of these regulatory

and antitrust issues.

Each chapter of the Handbook is dedicated to a specific industry.

Chapter I addresses antitrust and regulatory issues in the motor

transportation industries. Chapter II describes regulatory and antitrust

issues in the rail transportation industry. Chapter III provides a

comprehensive review of regulatory and antitrust issues involving both

domestic and international air travel. Chapter IV discusses regulatory and

antitrust issues in the ocean shipping industry.

Within each chapter, the Handbook seeks to provide historical

context for the current applicable regulatory and antitrust schemes and

then provide a detailed review and analysis of the antitrust issues that

arise in both regulatory and antitrust contexts in that industry. Where

possible, the book identifies emerging issues which will shape future law

and regulations.

The Handbook is the product of many dedicated lawyers and

economists. Amanda Wait and Bruce McCulloch coordinated the editing

and drafting of this book. The following practitioners worked under their

leadership to draft it:
