Summary

This book is a collection of papers and speeches given at the British Institute of International and Comparative Laws competition law events during 2005-2006, in particular: the Institute's annual conference on merger control in November 2005, a conference on the reform of Article 82 held in February 2006, a conference held by the Institute in February 2006 on comparative issues in competition litigation, the two-day trans-Atlantic Antitrust dialogue in July 2006, and papers from the Competition Law Forum on private actions and Article 82 reform. The book includes in-depth analyses of such topical issues as cartels, pricing practices, and mergers, and it provides comparative perspectives from European and North American experts, as well as important statements of policy by competition officials.
