Research Centers
The ACPC is an international and professional center combining politics, academics and research. It not only conducts academic research on antitrust and competition policy, but also works closely with anti-monopoly enforcement agencies so as to guide policy making with quality academic achievements. The ACPC provides intellectual support for competition policy making and antitrust law enforcement and plays a vital role in maintaining a fair competitive environment, realizing optimal allocation of resources and protecting consumers’ lawful benefits. Through domestic and overseas academic research and exchange, the ACPC aims to promote the development of contemporary industrial organizational theory, facilitate the spreading of academic achievements, conduct targeted policy analysis and theoretical study based on practices in China and contribute research results to China’s antitrust and competition policy.
ACPC researchers are suitable for conducting antitrust interdisciplinary research in that they are mainly from relevant schools and departments of RUC, including Hanqing Advanced Institute of Economics and Finance, the Law School, the School of Economics, the School of Business and other fraternal universities and colleges. Domestic well-known economists and legal scholars are also included. Meanwhile, the ACPCA has established cooperative relationships with international peers from the Wharton School, the Stanford University and UC Berkeley as well as first-rate institutions in Japan, South Korea and Singapore so as to build an authoritative theory study platform for domestic and overseas antitrust and competition policy.
