Our first October issue, sponsored by Danny Sokol, has two symposia. First, we celebrate the 20th anniversary of the U.S./EU Cooperation Agreement by bringing together some of the players that were at the birth of the agreement with those that have worked to push forward the collaborative transatlantic spirit it created. Of course, we also have comments on where this collaboration needs to go. And, second, we present two articles that continue to explore the tools used to discourage cartels: 1) a defense of fines as an effective tool against recidivism and 2) an interesting legal question—on what basis can the United States ban foreign executives?
