Research report on anti-monopoly of Chinese academic database

Abstract

In recent years, academic databases led by CNKI have been frequently questioned by public opinion because of unfair high prices and unfair competition behavior, which has damaged the competition order and consumer interests, and anti-monopoly investigation on CNKI has also been carried out accordingly. China's anti-monopoly research in the field of academic database is far from perfect in four aspects: the definition of related market, the identification of market dominant position, the identification of abuse of market dominant position and regulatory measures. In order to solve this problem, this paper believes that we should start with the detailed data analysis of the academic database market itself and the industry leaders, combined with similar fields and foreign anti-monopoly practice and experience, and carry out a special analysis of the three steps of monopoly identification that conform to the characteristics of academic database and attach importance to the advantages of copyright.
