European Merger Control

Beschreibung

About the work
European merger control is among the most important and complex aspects of competition law. The rapid pace of development in this area presents a further challenge: legislation and guidance documents are frequently issued and updated, and the formidable body of Court and Commission case-law continues to grow at a daunting rate.
This second edition provides a comprehensive treatment of EU merger control law and procedure addressing an extensive body of precedents since the 1st edition was published in 2010. It adopts an integrated approach that embraces both the law and economics of merger control, supplemented throughout with practical insights drawn from the authors� own experience. The book blends practical and academic perspectives and addresses new and unsolved questions of EU merger control law.
