Abstract
Judge Robert Bork was undeniably one of the towering figures in antitrust history. He advanced the field positively in many respects, articulating a serious critique of excesses of an earlier social-political approach to antitrust.

This short essay explores some of the effects of his overall approach to antitrust: his preoccupation with economic efficiency
