Marginal Revolution, the economics blog co-founded by Tyler Cowen and Alex Tabarrok of George Mason University, has featured The Antitrust Academy, an online platform hosting hundreds of videos that together comprise a complete course in antitrust law and economics.

According to the post, the Academy's teachers include Judge Douglas Ginsburg, Jon Klick, Joshua Wright, and others. The author also discloses that he serves as an advisor to the platform, and describes it as "a great resource whether you are learning this material for the first time or need to brush up on some legal or economic doctrines."

Among the named instructors, Douglas Ginsburg is a senior judge on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit and has taught antitrust at George Mason University's Antonin Scalia Law School. Joshua Wright is an economist and former commissioner of the U.S. Federal Trade Commission with a long record of scholarship in antitrust law and economics. Jon Klick is a professor of law at the University of Pennsylvania Carey Law School who is known for his work in law and economics.

Antitrust, the body of law that governs competition, is enforced in the United States primarily through the Sherman Act of 1890, the Clayton Act of 1914, and the Federal Trade Commission Act of 1914. Because the field combines statutory and case-law doctrine with economic analysis, courses such as the Academy's pair legal instruction with economic instruction, making a video-based format useful for readers seeking a structured refresher as well as a first introduction.
