Global Competition Law and Economics by Einer Elhauge, Damien Geradin ...

Bloomsbury Publishing PLC

This is the second edition of the acclaimed text on global antitrust law. With markets becoming increasingly global, mergers requiring approval in several different jurisdictions, cartels in one nation affecting supply in others, and countries increasingly entering into treaties with each other about the content or enforcement of competition laws, antitrust law is now a truly global phenomenon. Modern antitrust law is also different because it now reflects an increasingly economic approach to analysing antitrust and competition policy. This innovative work is the only truly comparative and economically sophisticated casebook on the market. Addressed to students from all jurisdictions having competition laws, this casebook provides an in-depth analysis of the two major global antitrust regimes in the world, as well as a summary of selected national antitrust laws. As such it will also serve as a useful reference for practitioners, competition officials and policy-makers interested in competition law. Key Features: - Comprehensive analysis of global antitrust law and economics. - Comparative approach covering US, EU, and other national laws. - Updated with latest developments in China, EU, and US. - Includes new Supreme Court cases and revised economic guidelines. - Expands coverage to include Australia, Brazil, Canada, Israel, Japan, South Africa, South Korea, Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Egypt, India, Indonesia, New Zealand, Peru, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand, Turkey, and Venezuela. Global Competition Law and Economics is an essential resource for students, practitioners, competition officials, and policy-makers seeking a deep understanding of the evolving landscape of international antitrust.
