Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Corones' Restrictive Trade Practices Law is now completely updated in a new edition, Competition Law in Australia. This new edition reflects the recent dramatic changes in the trade practices legislation. Due to the impact of the Hilmer Report, & hence changes to the teaching syllabus, the book required a change in its focus & breadth. This second edition focuses not just on Part IV (Restrictive Trade Practices) of the Trade Practices Act, but also deals with: * Part IIIA (Access to Services) * Part XIA (the Competition Code) * Part XIB (Anti-competitive Conduct in the Telecommunications Industry), & * Part XIC (Telecommunications Access Regime). The book's important introductory chapter remains, locating competition law within its economic environment, thus providing students with a broader perspective, aiding their understanding of the aims & objectives of the Trade Practices Act. Major areas of change since the previous edition which are now covered in the text include: * the competition law provisions of the Act * the new broader role of the ACCC (Australian Competition & Consumer Commission) * the Competition Reform Policy Act (1995), which introduced into all states, competition codes relating to individuals not just corporations * the repeal of s49 of the TPA on Price Discrimination * the new Evidence Act 1995 (Cth), & * legal professional privilege. For an up-to-date & comprehensive investigation of competition law this book will be invaluable to both students & practitioners.

Book excerpt: This research project compares the application of the competition laws of China and Australia to bank mergers, against financial regulatory frameworks and the dual objectives of competition and economic stability. As the title indicates, it seeks to identify lessons for Australian banks and Chinese regulators. A number of features dictate that the two jurisdictions will differ on many issues: ideological approach to the role of the market and the degree of appropriate government intervention; stage of economic development; nature of banking markets, particularly the extent of regulation. All of these features mean that many comparisons which could be made were not really of like with like. The research found a number of differences between approaches to merger analysis, particularly in relation to the role of competition itself. Financial stability is important in both jurisdictions. The Ministry of Commerce (MOFCOM) has the responsibility for reviewing mergers under the Anti-Monopoly Law of China (AML). There are no MOFCOM bank merger determinations under the AML at this point, but China places particular emphasis on financial stability as part of its national development agenda. This is unsurprising as despite its size and economic power China is still a developing nation. The research found that there are a number of examples where MOFCOM merger determinations in other areas of industry diverge from a pure competition-based analysis, but the divergences are generally within the terms of the AML. MOFCOM's approach is founded in the political economy of the People's Republic of China (PRC), which influences a number of features of the AML, meaning that the outcomes are uniquely Chinese. The AML is enforced by MOFCOM but questions remain about the nature of its application to mergers in sensitive industries. Despite the size of the country, market definition tends to be geographically very broad, which may also affect outcomes in all industries including banking.

Download or read book Chinese Antitrust Exceptionalism written by Angela Zhang and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2021-02-08 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: China's rise as an economic superpower has caused growing anxieties in the West. Europe is now applying stricter scrutiny over takeovers by Chinese state-owned giants, while the United States is imposing aggressive sanctions on leading Chinese technology firms such as Huawei, TikTok, and WeChat. Given the escalating geopolitical tensions between China and the West, are there any hopeful prospects for economic globalization? In her compelling new book Chinese Antitrust Exceptionalism, Angela Zhang examines the most important and least understood tactic that China can deploy to counter western sanctions: antitrust law. Zhang reveals how China has transformed antitrust law into a powerful economic weapon, supplying theory and case studies to explain its strategic application over the course of the Sino-US tech war. Zhang also exposes the vast administrative discretion possessed by the Chinese government, showing how agencies can leverage the media to push forward aggressive enforcement. She further dives into the bureaucratic politics that spurred China's antitrust regulation, providing an incisive analysis of how divergent missions, cultures, and structures of agencies have shaped regulatory outcomes. More than a legal analysis, Zhang offers a political and economic study of our contemporary moment. She demonstrates that Chinese exceptionalism-as manifested in the way China regulates and is regulated, is reshaping global regulation and that future cooperation relies on the West comprehending Chinese idiosyncrasies and China achieving greater transparency through integration with its Western rivals.

Download or read book The Australian Trade Practices Act 1974 written by D.K. Round and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-04-17 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a collection of papers which evaluate the achievements of the Australian Trade Practices Act 1974 in making Australian markets more competitive. The contributors have all played major roles in Australian and New Zealand antitrust actions, either as expert economic witnesses, as antitrust enforcers, as judges or as quasi-judicial administrators. No other publication presents such in-depth economic analysis of the Act and the cases decided under it in its first two decades of its operation. As well as an introductory paper, this collection includes a foreword by the Hon. George Gear, Assistant Treasurer of the Australian Government and Minister responsible for the administration of the Act, plus two broad analytical overviews of the last two decades of Australian antitrust actions by two economists who have continually been at the heart of antitrust proceedings. In addition, papers are provided which give a judicial view of the Act and economic analysis, which compare the Act with its New Zealand counterpart. Other contributions look in detail at those sections of the Act which cover mergers, misuse of market power, price-fixing and vertical practices. The book shows that the Act has had a major impact on Australian market behavior. Judges, lawyers and economists between them have produced a truly Australian approach to antitrust, which has reflected overseas trends in both law and economics, as well as developed a unique Australian flavor. The book will be of interest to academic and practicing lawyers and economists, judges and corporate executives. It will be essential reading for Australian students in undergraduate courses in antitrust law, business regulation, antitrust economics and industrial organization. It provides by far the most comprehensive economic evaluation of Australian antitrust yet published and so will be the definitive source of information on this topic for non-Australians interested in comparative antitrust legislation and enforcement issues.

Download or read book Misuse of Market Power written by Katharine Kemp and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2018-06-28 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Laws prohibiting unilateral anticompetitive conduct have been the subject of vigorous international debate for decades, as policymakers, antitrust scholars and agencies continue to disagree over how best to regulate the market conduct of a single firm with substantial market power. Katharine Kemp describes the controversy over Australia's misuse of market power laws in recent years, which mirrored the international debate in this sphere, and culminated in the fundamental reform of the misuse of market power prohibition under the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth) in 2017. Misuse of Market Power: Rationale and Reform explains Australia's new misuse of market power law, which adopts an 'effects-based test' for unilateral conduct, and makes a comparative analysis between Australian tests for unilateral anticompetitive conduct and tests from the US and the EU. This text also illuminates the frequently mentioned, but little understood, concept of 'purpose' and its role in framing unilateral conduct standards.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At a time when tech giants have amassed vast market power, Jonathan Baker shows how laws and regulations can be updated to ensure more competition.
