Résumé
This innovative textbook, now in its second edition, presents EU
competition law in political, economic and comparative context. It
brings competition law to life from an EU and global perspective, with
cross currents of trade and industrial policy and attention to the
intervention of the state in the market. Quintessentially readable, the
book deftly and concisely excerpts the key cases and embeds them in
explanatory materials, including policy statements and regulations. It
is entirely up to date and integrates, for example, new issues of power
in the digital economy. Notes accompanying the cases raise hard
questions and explain the fascinating issues underlying contemporary
competition policy in the European Union and around the world.
The book covers the full range of competition law and policy subjects,
namely: the Treaties and the single market, cartels, other horizontal
and vertical agreements, abuses of dominance, merger control, and state
restraints including State aids.
Among key features, the book:
• integrates law, economics and policies, providing a holistic sense of competition law and its place in the EU system
• is unusually concise, given its coverage, while explaining the critical nuances of cases by means of notes and questions
• provides a unique comparative perspective by including excerpts of
landmark US antitrust cases and numerous other comparative references.
This book is a perfect textbook for students of EU competition law and
even competition law in general, given that most nations in the
antitrust family of the world build their competition laws upon the EU
model. It is useful for specialized seminars on European, US, and other
nations’ and regions’ competition laws. It is also an excellent desk
book and resource for academics, enforcers and practitioners in the
field.
