Description

Comparative Competition Law examines the key global issues facing competition law and policy. This volume's specially commissioned chapters by leading writers from the United States, Europe, Asia, South America, and Australia provide a synthesis of how these current issues are addressed by drawing on the approaches taken in different jurisdictions around the world. Expert contributors examine the regulation of core competitive conduct by comparing substantive law approaches in the US and the EU. The book then explores issues of enforcement - such as the regulator's powers, whether to criminalize anti-competitive conduct, the degree to which private enforcement ought to be encouraged, and the extraterritorial scope of domestic laws. Finally, the book discusses how competition law is being implemented in a variety of countries, including Japan, China, Brazil, Chile, and Colombia. This scholarly analysis of the key substantive, procedural, and remedial challenges facing global competition law policymakers offers a comparative framework to facilitate a better understanding of relevant policies. This collection of global perspectives will be of great interest to scholars and students of competition law, microeconomics, and regulatory studies. Competition law regulators, policy makers, and law practitioners will also find this book an invaluable resource. Contributors include: R. Burgess, E. Buttigieg, M.A. Carrier, L. Cejnar, J. Clarke, D.A. Crane, A. Ditzel Faraco, A. Duke, J. Duns, G.A. Hay, K. Klovers, A. Merrett, N.H. Nesbitt, G.C. Shaffer, T. Shiraishi, R.L. Smith, A. Speegle, B. Sweeney, J. Tapia, S. Vande Walle, S.W. Waller, W. Zheng
