Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If society takes a turn towards organizing itself on a sustainable footing then the economic order of society, and with it the law, will (have to) change. It follows that if law is understood as consisting of legal rules, regulations and their enforcement which govern the (legal) relationships between actors in society, then economic law - as governing these relationships of the economic order - will have to change to accommodate a changing society. This includes that part of economic law that relates to the government regulating economic relations on the market: public economic law. Competition law is part of public economic law. In this essay I will investigate what the above means for European competition law. Competition law and policy can be seen as a tool - an instrument - to attain a societal goal.It is part of the larger toolbox of economic policy, which in turn is part of the organization of (the economic order of) society. Competition policy applies to market relations: the interaction between companies and the relationship between government and companies. This essay starts from the proposition that current competition law can be a stumbling block for private sustainability-initiatives. This proposition is explained, but will be preceded by an introduction relating to the meaning of the all-compassing, and therefore threateningly empty, concept of sustainable development. The essay will then foray into a discussion of how to solve the problem of competition law for a sustainable society and well end with some conclusion as to that topic.

Bringing together a distinguished collection of academics and industry experts, this book delves into a broad spectrum of topics, including economy, environment, energy, technology, employment, business, and management.

Download or read book The Economic Characteristics of Developing Jurisdictions written by Michal S. Gal and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is ongoing debate as to what competition law and policy is most suitable for developing jurisdictions. This book argues that the unique characteristics of developing jurisdictions matter when crafting and enforcing competition law and these should be placed at the heart of analysis when considering which competition laws are judicious. Through examining different factors that influence the adoption and implementation of competition laws in developing countries, this book illustrates the goals of such laws, the content of the legal rules, and the necessary institutional, political, ideological and legal conditions that must complement such rules. The book integrates development economics with competition law to provide an alternative vision of competition law, concluding that 'one competition law and policy size' does not fit 'all socio-economic contexts'.

Download or read book Environmental Integration in Competition and Free Movement Laws written by Julian Nowag and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016-11-10 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Environmental Integration in Competition and Free-Movement Laws engages in a comprehensive analysis of the obligation of Article 11 TFEU (integration of environmental protection requirements) in the three core areas of EU internal market law: competition, state aid, and free movement. It develops a theoretical framework for integrating environmental and other policies and compares how environmental integration takes place within competition, state aid, and free movement law. In turn, it paves a way for a more transparent and consistent integration of environment protection in these three core areas of law. Structured in three parts, this volume (I) offers a detailed analysis of the historical development of environmental integration including discussions of the various intergovernmental conferences which led to a number of Treaty changes, shaping the obligation itself. (II) It investigates which provisions and concepts within competition law, state aid law, and the market freedoms can be interpreted in order to provide a clear demarcation of environmental protection and these areas of law. (III) It analyses how competition, state aid, and free movement law allow for a balancing of the environment against restrictions in cases of conflict.
