平台经济领域的反垄断法实施 以经济效率目标为出发点

The Enforcement of Antitrust Law in Platform Economy From the Perspective of the Goal of Efficiency

在平台经济领域,欧盟和美国反垄断法实施力度有很大差异,中国也明显呈现出两个阶段。这种差异需要解释,而经济效率目标构成了理解的出发点。通过福利标准,经济效率目标建立了统一、确定的分析框架。但这一分析框架也受到诸多因素的约束,并面临平台经济的挑战。《反垄断法》虽然明确了经济效率目标,但没有清晰的福利标准。当前对平台企业的高强度执法,更多是追求非经济效率目标的结果。作为多目标法律,非经济效率目标使得《反垄断法》更具现实回应性。不过,要实现更好的实施效果,仍需要完善的反垄断法制度,并在个案中进行更充分地说理。

In platform economy,there are great differences between the EU and the US in terms of the enforcement of antitrust laws.China has experienced two stages as well.The differences need to be further explained.Considering the importance of goal for antitrust law,the goal of efficiency becomes a proper starting point.By the welfare standard,a unified and definite framework can be created for the goal of efficiency.Meanwhile,this analytical framework is also determined by many factors,and faces the challenge of platform economy.Although the Anti-Monopoly Law upholds the goal of efficiency,it does not have a clearly defined welfare standard.Currently,the active law enforcement targeting the platforms is the result of pursuing the goal of non-efficiency,which makes the Anti-Monopoly Law aiming to achieve multiple goals,become more responsive to reality.However,to achieve better implementation,it is required to improve anti-monopoly law and to make more thorough reasoning in specific cases.
