EU Competition Law. Cases, Texts and Context (2nd Edition)

Summary:

This textbook presents European Union (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. The publication excerpts the key cases and embeds them in explanatory materials, including policy statements and regulations. Notes accompanying the cases raise questions and explain the 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.
