Book Dominance and Monopolization

Download or read book Dominance and Monopolization written by Rosa Greaves and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-05-15 with total page 575 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Antitrust and competition law is a fast moving area of law and the subject of extensive academic research. The aim of this volume is to select articles as tools for understanding how antitrust and competition law is applied to unilateral conduct which is harmful to the consumer and to the competitiveness of the market. The articles examine the meaning of dominance and monopolisation and show that although legal and economic rules have been developed to establish whether undertakings hold such strong market positions, it is often difficult to determine with certainty that the undertaking being investigated meets the threshold. The various debates on pricing and non-pricing conduct are also represented as are the conflicts that have arisen regarding the exercise of intellectual property rights by powerful undertakings, particularly in the context of the new economies. The volume includes scholarly articles published on both sides of the Atlantic and enables a greater understanding of the application of antitrust and competition law from the point of view of economics and politics.

Book Dominance Economics

Download or read book Dominance Economics written by Fouad Sabry and published by One Billion Knowledgeable. This book was released on 2024-01-24 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is Dominance Economics The power that a company has over a certain economic market is referred to as market dominance. One of the characteristics of a dominating corporation is the ability to exert influence over the market price and the competition. The dominance of a company is a measurement of the power of a brand, product, service, or organization in comparison to the offers of other companies in the same industry. A dominating company also has the ability to act independently of its competitors or customers, and it does not have to worry about the distribution of its resources. There is a contrast between dominant positioning, which is a legal idea, and dominant positioning, which is an economic concept. This distinction is crucial when assessing whether or not a company's market position is dominant.

Book Market Dominance and Antitrust Policy

Download or read book Market Dominance and Antitrust Policy written by Michael A. Utton and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2005-01-01 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Market dominance - encompassing single firm dominance, overt and tacit collusion, mergers and vertical restraints - raises many complex analytical and policy issues, all of which continue to be the subject of theoretical research and policy reform. This second edition of a popular and comprehensive text extends the arguments and combines an analysis of the issues with a discussion of actual policy and case studies. This new edition addresses the recent fundamental changes in antitrust law, especially in the UK and the EU, and reviews some high profile and controversial cases such as the Boeing-McDonnell Douglas merger and the Microsoft monopoly. The author moves on to deal with several unresolved questions including the conflicts between trade and antitrust policy, the foreign take-over of domestic assets and extra-territorial claims made by certain countries.

Book Dealing with Dominance

    Book Details:
  • Author : Nauta Dutilh (Firm)
  • Publisher : Kluwer Law International B.V.
  • Release : 2004-01-01
  • ISBN : 9041122117
  • Pages : 342 pages

Download or read book Dealing with Dominance written by Nauta Dutilh (Firm) and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2004-01-01 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A prohibition of the abuse of dominance is an essential provision in any country's competition law. The purpose of such a prohibition is to protect competition where it is potentially weakened by the presence of dominant market players. If applied immoderately, however, this prohibition is liable to seriously harm competition rather than protect it. In this useful compilation, local practitioners and academics in twelve countries provide a detailed summary and analysis of the application of their countries' law in this area, drawing on the experience of national competition authorities in dealing with market dominance as well as a wide range of legislation, administrative regulations, and case law. Nine EU member states are covered, as are Australia, New Zealand, and the United States. Although contributors were specifically asked not to compare their national provisions with Article 82 EC, the book nevertheless provides useful insight on that article, as well. National "borderline cases", of the kind described here, help to clarify the application of Article 82 EC, especially considering that the case law on this provision is often controversial. Dealing with Dominance is a useful reference tool for the application of the national counterparts to Article 82 EC in Europe and beyond and answers a basic practical need of both national and international competition law practitioners. This book can also be seen as an especially important contribution to the comparative analysis of an increasingly crucial area of economic law.

Book Developing a Path to Data Dominance

Download or read book Developing a Path to Data Dominance written by Arthur Langer and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-04-25 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most existing companies struggle currently because they lack the tools and strategies to move product departments into independent platforms that can be retrofitted to form dynamic new products based on consumer demands. This book provides managers and professionals with the necessary approaches for designing software and hardware architectures to support data platform organizations. Specifically, it demonstrates how to automate the decomposition of existing platforms into smaller parts that can be reused to form new variations. This task requires significant analysis and design methodologies and procedures to create an infrastructure based on data as opposed to products. These new knowledge bases allow data-centric professionals to pursue actions that can better predict and respond to the unexpected. Featuring case examples from companies such as Lego, FedEx, General Electric (GE), Pfizer, P&G and more, this book is appropriate for C-level executives engaged in the digital transformation of their firms; entrepreneurs of digital platform companies; and senior software engineers that need to design Internet of Things (IoT) devices and integrate them with block chain and multi-cloud architectures. In addition, this book is also useful for graduate-level coursework in data science.

Book Firm Dominance in EU Competition Law

Download or read book Firm Dominance in EU Competition Law written by Jorge Marcos Ramos and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2020-02-20 with total page 524 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How does it come about that a certain firm dominates a market? Can an understanding of this process lead to a more effective enforcement of competition law? That is the question approached in this compelling book. The author reviews the European Union’s (EU’s) Article 102 case law, comparing it with United States (US) provisions, demonstrating that new ways of looking at market power are needed – today’s tech giants differ from older monopolies. He clarifies the role of dominant firms in the competitive process, proposing that conduct should be scrutinized differently depending on the source of market power, rather than using the same approach for all dominant undertakings. Supporting his contention that the legal consequences that derive from holding a dominant position cannot be disassociated from the sources of that market power—that a dynamic understanding of dominance requires looking both forwards and backwards in time—the author examines such sources of dominance as the following: ‒ statutory dominance derived from explicit protectionist measures or subtler geoeconomic strategies; ‒ legacy firms such as the telecommunications or transport industries; ‒ natural monopolies, e.g., the exploitation of a mine; ‒ investment efforts undertaken in a competitive environment; ‒ intangible resources such as timing, reputation, experience, innovation capabilities, or managerial processes; ‒ lucky monopolies; and ‒ anticompetitive behavior on the road to dominance. Drawing insights from EU and US case law, industrial organization scholarship, and strategic management literature, the book resolves questions related to the role that the origins of market power have played and should play in the enforcement of EU competition rules against dominant firms. It concludes with a list of policy recommendations bringing the application of Article 102 TFEU against dominant firms more in line with the objective of protecting the competitive process. With its focus on how EU competition law enforcement should be fine-tuned to adequately incorporate the origins of firm dominance into the analysis of single-firm behavior, the book makes a major contribution to the analysis of anticompetitive effects. Practitioners, competition authorities, and academics in competition law will greatly appreciate the book’s combination of legal analysis and recommendations for policy reform.

Book Digital Dominance

Download or read book Digital Dominance written by Martin Moore and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2018 with total page 441 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Across the globe, Google, Amazon, Facebook, Apple and Microsoft have accumulated power in ways that existing regulatory and intellectual frameworks struggle to comprehend. A consensus is emerging that the power of these new digital monopolies is unprecedented, and that it has important implications for journalism, politics, and society. It is increasingly clear that democratic societies require new legal and conceptual tools if they are to adequately understand, and if necessary check the economic might of these companies. Equally, that we need to better comprehend the ability of such firms to control personal data and to shape the flow of news, information, and public opinion. In this volume, Martin Moore and Damian Tambini draw together the world's leading researchers to examine the digital dominance of technologies platforms and look at the evidence behind the rising tide of criticism of the tech giants. In fifteen chapters, the authors examine the economic, political, and social impacts of Google, Amazon, Facebook, Apple, and Microsoft, in order to understand the different facets of their power and how it is manifested. Digital Dominance is the first interdisciplinary volume on this topic, contributing to a conversation which is critical to maintaining the health of democracies across the world.

Book A Principled Approach to Abuse of Dominance in European Competition Law

Download or read book A Principled Approach to Abuse of Dominance in European Competition Law written by Liza Lovdahl Gormsen and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2010-03-04 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Three questions surround the interpretation and application of Article 82 of the EC Treaty. What is its underlying purpose? Is it necessary to demonstrate actual or likely anticompetitive effects on the market place when applying Article 82? And how can dominant undertakings defend themselves against a finding of abuse? Instead of the usual discussion of objectives, Liza Lovdahl Gormsen questions whether the Commission's chosen objective of consumer welfare is legitimate. While many Community lawyers would readily accept and indeed welcome the objective of consumer welfare, this is not supported by case law. The Community Courts do not always favour consumer welfare at the expense of economic freedom. This is important for dominant undertakings' ability to advance efficiencies and for understanding why the Chicago and post-Chicago School arguments cannot be injected into Article 82.
