European Antitrust Law
By
Lorenzo Federico Pace
This book provides a thoughtful, comprehensive and yet concise contribution to the competition law literature and should be of interest to students in the field in Europe and worldwide. – Renato Nazzini, University of Southampton, UK
The book is so comprehensive that it cannot be summarised in a few lines,
precisely because it deals with the entire subject matter without shirking
any of the pertinent issues. The author analyses these thoroughly and
meticulously, and backs up his assertions with the appropriate legislative,
jurisprudential and bibliographical references. However, what is most
striking is not so much the range and variety of the subjects which the
author tackles, or the sometimes punctilious accuracy of the information
that he includes, but rather his enormous knowledge of the subject matter
and the enthusiasm that he brings to bear to his treatment of it. – Antonio Tizzano, European Court of Justic
This book definitely contributes an original perspective into EC antitrust rules.’
– Luis Ortiz Blanco, Garrigues, Abogados y Asesores Tributarios, Spain
The recent modification of the European Antitrust Law system, which concerns both the substance of the prohibitions and the system of enforcement, called for a thorough re-examination of this sector. Against this background, this book offers a new and coherent organisation of the subject. It takes into consideration the changes not only to the interpretation of Articles 81 and 82 EC, but also to the procedural aspects related to Reg. 1/03. In this context, the reform of Reg. 139/04 on European merger control is also fully taken into consideration.
European Antitrust Law places current EC antitrust and merger control rules in their historical context, considering both the economic foundations and guiding principles of the law. It will therefore be an invaluable and stimulating guide to EC antitrust for scholars, students and practitioners alike.
