Comprehensive Studies on IT based Economy and Competition Policy

我们发现，在2002-2004财年，我们的研究项目得到了JSPS科学研究补助金的财政支持。1正如你在美国、欧盟、日本和其他国家的微软案例中所看到的那样，对IT领域的“领跑者”进行反垄断监管非常重要，尽管这将是高度紧张和有问题的。2随着向以IT为基础的经济转型，反垄断问题，如垄断杠杆、价格挤压、默契串通和合并控制，受到了极大的关注和挑战。3政府对电信的监管，4应在法律保护和合理使用知识产权之间取得更好的平衡，以实现发明和创造性表达的竞争性发展。5在以信息技术为基础的国际交易和争端解决方面，将寻求国际协调以及国内监管改革。

We find the following matters on our research program financially supported by Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research of JSPS through 2002-2004 fiscal year.1 As you could see on Microsoft cases in the US, EU, Japan and other countries, antitrust regulation to the "first runner" in IT fields is very important, though it would be highly nervous and problematic.2 As changing to IT based economy, antitrust problems, eg., monopoly leverage, price squeeze, tacit collusion, and merger control, are focused and challenged dramatically.3 Governmental regulations on telecommunications, air lines and media industries should be transformed to pro-competitive framework from existing position.4 Better Balancing would be required between legal protection and fair use of intellectual property rights in order to achieve competitive development of inventions and creative expressions.5 In IT based international transactions and dispute resolutions, international coordination would be pursued as well as domestic regulation reform.
