简明反垄断法法英文指南/赵庆庆译(9)
Agreements to restrict output. An agreement to restrict production or output is illegal because reducing the supply of a product or service inevitably drives up its price.
产量限制协定。一项关于限制产量的协定是非法的。因为它削减了产品和服务的供应量,这就不可避免地引发了价格上涨。
Boycotts. A group boycott -- an agreement among competitors not to deal with another person or business -- violates the law if it is used to force another party to pay higher prices.
联合抵制。一团体的联合抵制(即竞争者之间有关禁止与其它人交易的协定)若是以迫使另一团体支付更高的价格为目的,那么这种行为就是非法的。
Boycotts to prevent a firm from entering a market or to disadvantage a competitor also are illegal. Recent cases involved a group of physicians charged with using a boycott to prevent a managed care organization from establishing a competing health care facility in Virginia and retailers who used a boycott to force manufacturers to limit sales through a competing catalog vendor.
联合抵制一家新的公司进入市场或联合使某一竞争者陷入劣势境地同样也是非法的。新近的案例有:弗吉尼亚州一内科医生团体联合抵制一组织建立其竞争性的卫生保健设施而遭到起诉;及零售商们通过联合行动强迫制造商限制其经由竞争性零售网的销售。
Are boycotts for other purposes illegal? It depends on their effect on competition and possible justifications. A group of California auto dealers used a boycott to prevent a newspaper from telling consumers how to use wholesale price information when shopping for cars. The FTC proved that the boycott affected price competition and had no reasonable justification.
