This timely book, with contributions from
prominent experts including Luis Ortiz Blanco, Valentine Korah, Ernst-Joachim
Mestmäcker, Lorenzo F. Pace and Richard Whish, examines the novel aspects of the
2009 Guidance on Article 102. They present a critical assessment of the Guidance
that could be relevant to the result of the ongoing Commission'sinvestigations,
for example, the opened procedure against Google. Moreover, the contributing
authors identify the differences between the Guidance and the prohibition of
exclusionary abuses in some member states (including France, Germany, Great
Britain, Italy and Spain) and reveal the ways in which the relevant national
laws treat exclusionary abuses, and assess how they differ from the approach of
the Guidance. They also reveal the history and development of the relevant
national legislation on prohibitions of unilateral conduct.
