Written by a team of contributors drawn from the Legal Service of the European Commission and from academia, the Commentary offers expert guidance to practitioners and academics seeking fast access to the Treaties, secondary law, and current practice. The Commentary follows a set structure, offering a short overview of the Article, the Article text itself, a key references list including essential case law and legislation, followed by a structured commentary on the Article. The editors and contributors combine experience in practice with a strong academic background and have published widely on a variety of EU law subjects.

Book Automotive Global Value Chain

Download or read book Automotive Global Value Chain written by Wilson Kia Onn Wong and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-08-09 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today, some suppliers have grown increasingly powerful and in certain cases, earn revenues that rival or even exceed that of their automaker clients. In the pre-globalisation period, automakers wielded absolute power over their significantly smaller suppliers. This book reveals the upending of this relationship, with the gradual shift in the balance of power from automakers to their suppliers in this era of globalisation. The book examines how suppliers in the global tyres, seats, constant velocity joints (hereafter 'CVJs'), braking systems and automotive semiconductor industries have evolved into powerful oligopolies through a mix of acquisition and organic growth strategies. It also highlights how joint ventures could be strategically deployed as springboards to acquisition, as they enable firms to familiarise themselves with their partners’ markets and operations. Moreover, the book analyses the disruption stirred by the entry of well-resourced technology titans into this industry and their inevitable clash with the traditional incumbents. This book is an invaluable reference for anyone interested in learning more about the automakers’ and now their suppliers’ relentless quest to create market-dominating intelligent driving systems.

Book Airport Competition Regulation in Europe

Download or read book Airport Competition Regulation in Europe written by Stamatis Varsamos and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2016-10-15 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past thirty years, airports within the EU – including nearly a hundred newly built or rebuilt during that time – have undergone a major economic transformation. From mere infrastructure providers, airports have become diversified and complex commercial enterprises in competition with each other. This is the first and only book thus far to deal with the legal issues surrounding this important development, focusing on the impact of EU Directive 12/2009 on airport charges. Examining the use of airport infrastructure, the growing competition among airports, and the relations between airlines and airports, the author, a leading aviation law practitioner, covers such issues and topics as the following: - types of charges – landing, passenger, aircraft parking; - pricing factors determining airport charges; - vertical contractual relations between airports and airlines; - airport market power and dominance; - issues of consultation and transparency; - ability of airlines and passengers to switch to alternative airports; - application of state aid rules; - security charges; - environmental charges and schemes; and - price discrimination and differentiation. The presentation encompasses a critical analysis of the findings of case law, both international and European, on airport charges in the context of the new trend of airports and airlines concluding vertical agreements. As an examination of the economic regulation of EU airports due to the liberalization process, structural changes in the ownership status of many EU airports, and the emergence of new airline business models (such as low-cost carriers), this book, the only one of its kind, will quickly become indispensable to practitioners, policymakers, and academics in aviation law.

Book Building the European Union

    Book Details:
  • Author : Koen Lenaerts
  • Publisher : Bloomsbury Publishing
  • Release : 2021-09-23
  • ISBN : 150993085X
  • Pages : 325 pages

Download or read book Building the European Union written by Koen Lenaerts and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2021-09-23 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book charts the evolution of EU law (both internal market and institutional law) through the jurisprudence of one of its leading jurists. Few have as close an eye-witness view of the evolution of European Union law as judges at the ECJ. They not only observe, however, but actively work towards its development. This collection assesses the momentous contribution to European Union law made by José Luís da Cruz Vilaça. Taking those areas of law which were directly shaped by his judgments (institutional law/internal market/free movement of persons and judicial review), leading scholars assess his legacy. Through this prism, the story of EU law can be charted.

Book European Competition Law Annual 2007

Download or read book European Competition Law Annual 2007 written by Claus-Dieter Ehlermann and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2008-11-28 with total page 882 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the twelfth in a series on EU Competition Law and Policy produced by the Robert Schuman Centre of the European University Institute in Florence. The volume reproduces the written contributions and transcripts in connection with a roundtable debate which examined the EU's enforcement policy as regards the abuse of a dominant position under Article 82 EC. The workshop participants included: senior enforcement officials and policy makers from the European Commission, from the national competition authorities of certain EU Member States and from the US Department of Justice and Federal Trade Commission; and renowned international academics, legal practitioners and professional economists. In an intense, intimate environment, this group of experts debated a number of legal and economic issues structured according to three broad lines of discussion: 1) comparisons of the concept of monopolization under Section 2 of the Sherman Act with that of abuse of dominance under Article 82 EC; 2) a reformed approach to exclusionary unilateral conduct; and 3) exploitative unilateral conduct and related remedies.

Book Research  Quality  Competitiveness

Download or read book Research Quality Competitiveness written by Attilio Stajano and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-09-22 with total page 548 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The European Union (EU) was launched as a response to the economic dominance of the United States and – to a lesser degree – the Soviet Union. The nations of Western Europe were too small to compete against large scale and diversi?ed economies on their own. Six countries, eventually expanding to 27 (and counting), took a series of steps toward progressively deeper integration: the removal of int- nal tariffs, the construction of a common external tariff, the elimination of many (but not all) non-tariff barriers leading to a single market, and the adoption of a c- mon currency by 15 of the member states. The EU today equals and even exceeds the U. S. on many key indicators of performance. In the process, two similar but nonetheless divergent models of social and economic life stand in contrast with each other. The U. S. is more committed to capitalism and does little to dilute its harsh edges while the nations of Europe support wider social safety nets and more active regulation of commercial activity to mute the crueller aspects of the free-market. Until recently, the economic dynamism of the U. S. called into question whether the so-called European social model was sustainable in an era of globalization. The EU was slipping in competitiveness and was being challenged by new global pow- houses like China and India. Although the U. S. economy has slowed, there is little indication that European countries are capable of leveraging the situation to their advantage.

Book Directory of EU Case Law on Competition

Download or read book Directory of EU Case Law on Competition written by René Barents and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2017-10-30 with total page 1430 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This well-known book, prized since 2007 by practitioners in EU competition law for its easy-tofind extracts sorted by subject, is now in its second and hugely expanded edition, covering all decisions of the Court of Justice and the General Court of the European Union on competition law through the end of 2016. This new edition comprising of forty-seven chapters follows the same easy-to-use format as the earlier volume and covers all the case law on the substantive and procedural aspects of the EU treaty rules and legislation on antitrust and mergers. To improve the accessibility of the case law, this book is structured as follows: – Hundreds of headings and subheadings present virtually every point from which a researcher is likely to start. – Each subject heading starts with extracts having a more general meaning followed by extracts relating to specific points or situations. – Extracts are accompanied by cross references where appropriate. – Extracts are drawn from all EC competition case law encompassing every judgment and order in the ‘Reports of Cases before the Court of Justice and the General Court’ (‘Summary of the Judgment’) until 2017. Although it is primarily of value to barristers, solicitors, in-house lawyers of companies and associations of companies, officials of national competition authorities, and other active practitioners in EU competition law, the book will also be welcomed by scholars and others who need to obtain in a minimum of time an overview of what the European courts have actually stated about a specific point (including detailed references) in the field.

Book The New EU Competition Law

    Book Details:
  • Author : Pablo Ibáñez Colomo
  • Publisher : Bloomsbury Publishing
  • Release : 2023-12-14
  • ISBN : 1782259147
  • Pages : 359 pages

Download or read book The New EU Competition Law written by Pablo Ibáñez Colomo and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2023-12-14 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides the first comprehensive account of the New EU Competition Law: an emerging understanding of the discipline that breaks from the consensus of the early 2000s and that ventures into uncharted territories. Competition law has undergone fundamental transformations in the past decade, from the rise and fall of the 'effects-based approach' to the challenge of Big Tech and the growing interaction with intellectual property. Making sense of these changes and fully grasping their implications can be difficult. The book discusses the shift from traditional enforcement in the industrial era to the sort of intervention that a knowledge-based economy demands. It presents the changes that the field is undergoing (policy priorities, relationship with regulation and intangible assets, move away from efficiency and consumer welfare) and illustrates them by reference to the most significant developments. The analysis includes an up-to-date evaluation of the Digital Markets Act and addresses the application of EU competition law to key areas, including energy, pharma, telecommunications and online platforms. Conceived as a 'modular' book, practitioners and advanced students will find it useful as a map to navigate the underlying trends and as an in-depth dissection of the key case law and administrative practice of the past decade.
