academics and an experienced practitioner - Combines both practical insight and
scholarly analysis - A rich compendium of commentary and analysis on all the
main themes of competition law - Extensive coverage of both substantive,
procedural and enforcement issues in two volumes. Handbook on European
Competition Law: Substantive Aspects sets the context for examination of
substantive law by reviewing and analyzing the goals of competition law. It
then covers the substantive building blocks of EU competition law, including
horizontal and vertical agreements, cartels, mergers, and also provides
valuable coverage of the interaction between competition and regulation, hub
and spoke collusion, and information exchange agreements. The importance of the
abuse of dominance doctrine is reflected in three discrete chapters considering
exploitative abuses, exclusionary pricing abuses, and exclusionary non-pricing
abuses. The companion volume, Handbook on European Competition Law: Enforcement
and Procedure, sets out in detail the procedural aspects of EU Competition Law,
ranging from fines, remedies and judicial review. It also gives unique insight
into both private and public enforcement of completion law, and offers
commentary on the relationship between EU competition law and national
competition law, and on the relationship between competition law and private
international law.
