Details

This seminal text offers an authoritative and integrated treatment of the legal and economic principles that underpin the application of Article 102 TFEU to the behaviour of dominant firms.

Traditional concerns of monopoly behaviour, such as predatory pricing, refusals to deal, excessive pricing, tying and bundling, discount practices and unlawful discrimination are treated in detail through a review of the applicable economic principles, the case law and decisional practice and more recent economic and legal writings. In addition, the major constituent elements of Article 102 TFEU, such as market definition, dominance, effect on trade and applicable remedies are considered at length.

The third edition involves a net addition of over 250 pages, with a substantial new chapter on Abuses In Digital Platforms, an extensively revised chapter on standards, and virtually all chapters incorporating substantial revisions reflecting key cases such as Intel, MEO, Google Android, Google Shopping, AdSense, and Qualcomm.

Robert O'Donoghue is a barrister at Brick Court Chambers, London and Brussels.

A Jorge Padilla is Senior Managing Director and Head of Compass Lexecon Europe.

Today's [competition] bible is clearly, and without the shadow of a doubt, THE reference on Article 102 TFEU. I guess everyone should thank Robert O'Donoghue and Jorge Padilla for the assistance they have provided to the competition community since the 1st ed. There is a world before and a world after "The Law and Economics of Article 102 TFEU". Clearly, this book should be compulsory reading for anyone approaching the law of abuse of dominance. I guess it should even be subsidised by agencies.
