Download or read book Competition Law Remedies in Europe written by Antonio Capobianco and published by Hart Publishing Limited. This book was released on 2015-11-01 with total page 492 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume presents a comprehensive legal and economic analysis of competition law remedies in Europe. First, it examines the philosophy and overall objectives of competition law remedies and their interaction with the substantive and institutional aspects of competition law enforcement. It analyses the impact of specific types of remedies on the emergence of an optimal enforcement system by looking to legal and economic literature, case law and empirical research. Second, it identifies the competition law remedies which have been put into effect in the context of antitrust law enforcement and merger control in Europe. In the field of antitrust, different issues may arise in devising adequate remedies for cartel infringements, antitrust law infringements involving unilateral abuses of market power, and infringements involving access to proprietary information or resources. In all these cases different types of remedies may be imposed, such as contractual remedies, damages and behavioural or structural remedies. In the context of merger control the prospective nature of the analysis requires the consideration of a number of factors, such as the costs of remedial action, the probability of compliance, the short- or long-term impact of the remedy, the risk of strategic conduct of the merging parties, and the choice of appropriate monitoring and compliance mechanisms on an on-going basis for the future. The third part of this study examines the procedural implications of injunctions, interim measures, private action-led injunctions, measures-declaratory actions and procedural/administrative issues in public enforcement. The fourth part concludes by examining creative remedies and reforms that should be made to the current regime of competition law remedies in Europe. It also explores the interaction between competition law remedies adopted by different jurisdictions in a world of multi-jurisdictional competition law enforcement from procedural and public policy perspectives.
Download or read book Thinking Outside the Illinois Brick Box written by Andrew I. Gavil and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Illinois Brick Co. v. Illinois, the Supreme Court adopted a per se ban on private, treble damage antitrust suits by “indirect purchasers” in federal courts. The Court did so based on its belief that, if permitted, such actions could result in duplicative liability and protracted and complex proceedings. It also concluded that concentrating all recovery rights in the hands of direct purchasers would best serve U.S. antitrust law's twin goals of deterrence and compensation. Many states disagreed with the Court's assessment. They viewed Illinois Brick's ban on recovery by indirect purchasers as an arbitrary, anti-consumer limitation on the remedies available for violation of the antitrust laws and responded by adopting “Illinois Brick repealers.” By judicial decision or legislation, these repealers authorized indirect purchasers to sue in state courts under state antitrust laws. They became an accepted feature of the U.S. antitrust remedial system when, in California v. ARC America, the Supreme Court rejected the argument that state repealers were impliedly pre-empted by federal antitrust law as interpreted in Illinois Brick. Together, Illinois Brick, ARC America and some interrelated cases have produced a needlessly expensive, cumbersome, and complex antitrust remedial system that divides related cases between federal and state courts. Although removal and multi-district litigation procedures allow for some administrative efficiencies, the likely cost of the divided system is significant both for litigating parties and for the public and promote litigation strategies that may undermine the core goals of the antitrust remedial scheme. Ironically, the current system is more likely to produce the evils feared by the Supreme Court in Illinois Brick than a system that permitted indirect and direct purchasers alike to sue in federal court. And it is almost certain that the current divided remedial system has led to the odd combination of over-deterrence and under-compensation. This article presents a proposal for reform of the Illinois Brick-ARC America system that recalibrates the balance between deterrence and compensation. The goal is to establish a system that produces improved levels of both deterrence and compensation, while significantly decreasing the current, unacceptably high costs of administering our antitrust remedial system.
Download or read book How Antitrust Law Could Reform College Football written by Marc Edelman and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This speech discusses how the absurdity came to pass where college football has become a multibillion dollar business, yet a majority of college football players live below the poverty line. This speech also discusses how antitrust litigation against the National Collegiate Athletic Association and its member colleges could serve as the much-needed impetus for reform to the system, and why a proper antitrust remedy could yield economic reform and tangible change in college sports. Overall, this is a speech built on optimism, but only optimism presuming that the courts properly recognize that the NCAA's current mode of business violates federal antitrust laws, and only if the courts ultimately require changes to better protect the legal rights of all stakeholder groups within the collegiate sports industry.

Download or read book How Antitrust Failed Workers written by Eric A. Posner and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2021 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Antitrust law has very rarely been used by workers to challenge anticompetitive employment practices. Yet recent empirical research shows that labor markets are highly concentrated, and that employers engage in practices that harm competition and suppress wages. These practices include no-poaching agreements, wage-fixing, mergers, covenants not to compete, and misclassification of gig workers as independent contractors. This failure of antitrust to challenge labor-market misbehavior is due to a range of other failures-intellectual, political, moral, and economic. And the impact of this failure has been profound for wage levels, economic growth, and inequality. In light of the recent empirical work, it is urgent for regulators, courts, lawyers, and Congress to redirect antitrust resources to labor market problems. This book offers a strategy for judicial and legislative reform"--

Download or read book Mergers Merger Control and Remedies written by John Kwoka and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2015 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive analysis of merger outcomes based on all empirical studies, with an assessment of the effectiveness of antitrust policy toward mergers. In recent decades, antitrust investigations and cases targeting mergers—including those involving Google, Ticketmaster, and much of the domestic airline industry—have reshaped industries and changed business practices profoundly. And yet there has been a relative dearth of detailed evaluations of the effects of mergers and the effectiveness of merger policy. In this book, John Kwoka, a noted authority on industrial organization, examines all reliable empirical studies of the effect of specific mergers and develops entirely new information about the policies and remedies of antitrust agencies regarding these mergers. Combined with data on outcomes, this policy information enables analysis of, and creates new insights into, mergers, merger policies, and the effectiveness of remedies in preventing anticompetitive outcomes. After an overview of mergers, merger policy, and a common approach to merger analysis, Kwoka offers a detailed analysis of the studied mergers, relevant policies, and chosen remedies. Kwoka finds, first and foremost, that most of the studied mergers resulted in competitive harm, usually in the form of higher product prices but also with respect to various non-price outcomes. Other important findings include the fact that joint ventures and code sharing arrangements do not result in such harm and that policies intended to remedy mergers—especially conduct remedies—are not generally effective in restraining price increases. The book's uniquely comprehensive analysis advances our understanding of merger decisions and policies, suggests policy improvements for competition agencies and remedies, and points the way to future research.
