The thesis of this now-classic work – that the European Commission and
the Community Courts, under the necessity of forging an effective competition
policy, created an entire new school of thought in economic theory that
permeates the disciplinary boundary between law and economics – has been
gaining ground among competition law practitioners and their government
counterparts over the last decade. Now, in the book’s third edition, the
author explores the full spectrum of this development in detail, uncovering
its multiple rationales as it has gradually formulated the legal principles of
‘competition economics’ that have come to underlie all matters related to
Article 81 (1), Article 81 (3), Article 82, the Merger Regulation, and the
State Aid provisions.

Although clearly written for a legal audience, the book is interdisciplinary,
integrating both law and economics in such a way that economics in competition
proceedings becomes easier to understand for people not trained in economic
theory. It offers an in-depth description of ‘European School’ theories and
applications, particularly with respect to vertical and horizontal agreements
and collective dominance. In addition, the book provides solid guidance on the
definition of the relevant antitrust markets, with a detailed description of
the appropriate methodology, the hypothetical monopolist test.

Among the fundamental elements discussed are the following:

;

the application of the competition test as developed by the Community Courts;

the concrete economic analysis companies needs to perform in order to qualify
for an exemption;

the test procedures to assess whether a certain behaviour constitutes an abuse
under Article 82;

various methodologies to define markets; and

empirical techniques used to evaluate a merger.

This updated and revised third edition has been anticipated, and will be
widely welcomed. Competition lawyers will appreciate the book’s clear,
understandable discussion of the relevant European competition theories,
authoritative guidance on the application of economic analysis, and practical
insight in dealing with these subjects.
