The American anti - monopoly policies in different periods are closely related to the development of theories of economy. The analysis framework of the Harvard School, the efficiency doctrine of the Chicago School, and the economic theory of transaction rates have all exerted great influence upon American anti - monopoly policies and judicial practice. This paper analyses the effects of the above - mentioned economic theories on American anti - monopoly policies and judicial practice. In addition, the paper spells out why American anti - monopoly measures have gradually become less stringent than they were.
