Theoretical Issues

In this context few theoretical issues are: What is the importance of competition law? Why the MRTP Act became obsolete? What type of new legislative scheme has been adopted under the Competition Act 2002? What is the role of the Competition Commission of India and Appellate Tribunal? Why extra-territorial jurisdiction is recognised under the 2002 Act? Is there any difference among monopoly, oligopoly and the competition? What are the approaches that have been applied in explaining competition law? Is there any particular approach applied in India? This Article is primarily devoted to aforementioned aspects.

Group Members

AbstractWhitehouse adapts insights from evolutionary anthropology to interpret extreme self-sacrifice through the concept of identity fusion. The model neglects the role of normative systems in shaping behaviors, especially in relation to violent extremism. In peaceful groups, increasing fusion will actually decrease extremism. Groups collectively appraise threats and opportunities, actively debate action options, and rarely choose violence toward self or others.

AbstractIntuitions guide decision-making, and looking to the evolutionary history of humans illuminates why some behavioral responses are more intuitive than others. Yet a place remains for cognitive processes to second-guess intuitive responses – that is, to be reflective – and individual differences abound in automatic, intuitive processing as well.

Sense Of Obligation

Abstract Tomasello offers a compelling account of the emergence of humans’ sense of obligation. We suggest that more needs to be said about the role of affect in the creation of obligations. We also argue that positive emotions such as gratitude evolved to encourage individuals to fulfill cooperative obligations without the negative quality that Tomasello proposes is inherent in obligations.
