We live in an age of extreme corporate concentration, in which global industries are controlled by just a few giant firms - big banks, big pharma, and big tech, just to name a few. But concern over what Louis Brandeis called the "curse of bigness" can no longer remain the province of specialist lawyers and economists, for it has spilled over into policy and politics, even threatening democracy itself.

Trust busting for the 21st Century
Reviewed: 09-21-20
great primer on trust busting from the 1890s - 2010s. Prof Wu provides a foundation to re-imagine the current economic and political situation existing in much of the world. May his thoughts reach those who can take the power back
