      abstract = {On 1 August 2008, the Chinese Anti-Monopoly Law entered  into force, introducing a comprehensive framework for  competition law to the Chinese market. One set of the new  rules pertains to merger control. China?s Ministry of  Commerce (MOFCOM) was nominated as the authority  responsible for enforcing merger control in China, and has  been actively doing so ever since. Recent years have  established China as one of the most important merger  filing jurisdictions for cross-border mergers alongside the  EU and USA. This work evaluates the Chinese merger control  law regime and MOFCOM?s decision-making practice after more  than five years of application. In particular, it assesses  which policy goals (competition policy goals or industrial  policy considerations) prevail in the written law and its  application, and provides suggestions for a further  improvement of the law ? with the aim to develop a  transparent merger control regime that promotes long-term  economic growth in China.},
