This book, written by an academic-cum-practitioner with substantial
experience in the field of antitrust enforcement, presents the rise of
private enforcement of competition law in Europe, especially in the
context of the recent modernisation and decentralisation of EC
competition law enforcement. In particular, the study examines the
role of courts in the application of the EC competition rules and
views that role in the broader system of antitrust enforcement. The
author starts from the premise of private enforcement's independence
of public enforcement and after examining the new institutional
position of national courts and their relationship with the Court of
Justice, the Commission, and public enforcement in general, proceeds
to deal with the detailed substantive and procedural law framework of
private antitrust actions in Europe. The author describes the current
post-decentralisation state of affairs but also refers to the latest
proposals to enhance private antitrust enforcement in Europe both at
the Community level, where reference is made to the December 2005
Commission Green Paper on Damages Actions and its aftermath, and at
the national level, where reference is made to recent and forthcoming
relevant initiatives.
