Cross-Border EU Competition Law Actions

This book, written within the framework of a research project funded by the European Commission Civil Justice Program, identifies the ways in which cross-border EU competition law actions can be best handled in Europe. Employing traditional library-based, legal research methods - as well as qualitative interviews with legal practitioners in Germany and England (countries sharing different legal traditions) and policy-makers in Brussels - the book considers how private EU competition law actions are functioning at the moment and how they could and should be developed. The study proposes solutions for some of the most pressing practical problems, and includes contributions by academics, legal practitioners, and judges. (Series: Hart Studies in Competition Law)
