Description:
This up-to-date third edition spans the globe, presenting examples of competition law and analysis from six continents, nationally, regionally and internationally. The book presents diverse materials for students, scholars and practitioners revealing the roots of the law as well as the roots of divergences among jurisdictions. It covers developed and developing countries, private firm and state restraints, and domestic and global restraints. For cross-border restraints, it covers issues of extraterritoriality, cooperation of authorities, convergence of principles of law, and theories of global governance. The book covers all of the substantive categories: cartels, other competitor agreements, vertical agreements, and mergers, and explores new economy, high tech, intellectual property and geopolitical issues. Jurisdictions featured include the European Union, the United States, China, Japan, South Korea, South Africa, continental Africa, and South and Central America. The third edition adds three new globally renowned authors with expertise in Europe, Asia, and Africa.
"This volume is a majestic survey of an issue whose time has truly come. It will not only be a building block in the enterprise of aligning global markets and national antitrust; it is a veritable world tour of the rules and practices that already propel that world further and map out its future direction."
—David Lewis, Executive Director, Corruption Watch, Johannesburg, and Inaugural Chairperson of the South African Competition Tribunal
