The Political Content of Antitrust
-
In emphasizing avoidance of cartels and containment of illegal monopoly power -concepts derived from economic literature - I do not mean to suggest that the reasons for hostility to cartels and illegal monopolies are exclusively economic, or that the antitrust laws be interpreted solely with economic goals in mind. On the contrary, concentrated market power can impair individual and business freedom and, depending on the sector of the economy in which it occurs, can on occasion threaten democratic values that require dispersion of economic power. See Robert Pitofsky, The Political Content of Antitrust, 127 U. PA. L. REV. 1051 (1979).

Plaintiffs also challenged Xerox's policy of refusing to sell copyrighted manuals. The Federal Circuit treated the policy as a unilateral refusal to sell intellectual property, and reached much the same conclusions as those relating to patent issues. The copyright portion of the opinion raises policy issues that are similar to the patent issues and, at least in the context of this article, does not require separate discussion.

For example, if the plaintiff proved that the defendant had attempted to enforce an invalid patent, as part of a Walker Process or sham litigation claim, then the defendant would have no lawful patent to license and permissible limits of its refusal to do so would be irrevelant.
