Course contents :
|
| The seminar "Case Studies in EU Competition Law" will review an anthology of Court judgments and Commission decisions covering the full range of EU antitrust and merger control issues: cartels, other horizontal restraints and vertical restraints (Art. 101 TFEU), unilateral abusive conduct (Art. 102 TFEU), mergers and also restraints -- other than state aids -- involving companies entrusted with so-called services of general economic interest (Art. 106 TFEU). The seminar will also address some key procedural issues that typically arise in these areas. |
|
Learning outcomes of the course :
|
| The objective is to offer students a two-sided perspective: that of the enforcer and that of a private practitioner who assists companies in staying clear from the "danger" zone. Ultimately, the goal is to help students better understand what the notion of "restriction of competition" really means in EU competition law. |
