摘要：
This paper discusses possibilities to detect anticompetitive horizontal mergers. In particular, it develops a detection framework for antitrust authorities. The framework considers the potential welfare effects of mergers through changes in product prices and efficiencies, as well as product variety, marketing, and innovation incentives. The implementation of the framework is addressed through the derivation of back-of-the-envelope formulas.
