Abstract
Global antitrust enforcement has gained ascendancy in the absence of universal jurisdiction. Various international legal instruments and strategies have been devised to facilitate global enforcement of antitrust law, especially cartel regulations. This paper examines the strength and shortcomings of various international legal instruments for global cartel enforcement through examination of the laws and policies of major antitrust enforcement jurisdictions including the US and EU.
