摘　　要：宽恕制度是反垄断法公共实施中的一项重要制度,其基本要素在于对主动与公共实施机构合作的垄断违法行为主体在满足一定条件时授予某种形式的宽恕。在美国反垄断法公共实施实践中,公司宽恕政策与个人宽恕政策,宽恕升级和处罚升级制度,以及传统的辩诉交易制度联系在一起,构成了一个相互衔接、共同作用的整套制度体系,成为实施机构开展工作极为有力的博弈武器,极大地实现了反垄断法公共实施制度在最佳威慑效用方面的价值。参考美国宽恕制度的立法和司法经验,在我国反垄断法领域以具有普遍适用效力的法律或者行政法规的方式健全与完善宽恕制度的具体规则设计,同时相应调整我国公共实施制度其他组成部分的有关规定,具有十分重要的现实意义。Leniency program is an important instrument in the system of public enforcement of antitrust law. Its basic element is granting some form of leniency to corporations or individuals who report their illegal antitrust activi- ties and cooperate with the public enforcement institutions if they meet certain specified conditions of the program. In the U.S. legal practice, corporate leniency policy, leniency policy for individual, amnesty plus, penalty plus, as well as the traditional tool of plea bargaining, interrelate with each other and work together, and have become an ex- tremely powerful weapon for public enforcement institutions in the antitrust game and significantly contribute to the realization of the value of public antitrust enforcement for achieving optimal deterrence. Drawing upon the legislative and judicial experience of U. S. leniency program, China could formulate laws of general applicability to improve and refine the specific rules of its antitrust leniency program, and at the same time make corresponding adjustment to relevant provisions of other components of the public enforcement system, which is of particularly important practical significance.
