Abstract
“…There can be enormous negative consequences, especially in transitional and developing economies struggling to cope with globalization and trade liberalization. Think of cartels, monopolies, and collusion… Answers lie in developing a policy framework on competition; in formulating rules that are impartial and rational, and creating the necessary institutions (whether domestic, regional, or international) to prevent foreign or domestic firms from engaging in anti-competitive behaviour…” These remarks by past IDRC president Maureen O’Neil, introduce speakers at the International Economic Forum of the Americas (2007).
