The Trust Problem in the United States

From the breaking up of Standard Oil to the antitrust investigations of tech giants like Google and Facebook, the issue of trust-busting has been a contentious one in American politics for more than a century. In this insightful text, Jones provides an overview of the history and politics of trust-busting, and argues that the US government has a duty to protect consumers from monopolistic practices. A must-read for anyone interested in the intersection of politics and economics, this book is a fascinating exploration of a perennially important issue.
