'Bjorn Lundqvist's book provides a fascinating dive into a subject at the crossroads of competition law, the GDPR, and new data regulations. A must-read and highly timely book for understanding our data-driven European economy.' David Bosco, Aix-Marseille University

'Lundqvist offers a superb analysis of one of the main challenges of our data-driven economy: the regulation of access and transfer of data. The book provides a clear yet deep, comprehensive, and thoughtful account of the numerous laws applicable, culminating in an original proposal for a new right for data access and transfer. Masterfully combining theory with real-world examples, this book is a must-read for anyone interested in the regulation of the data-driven economy.' Michal S. Gal, University of Haifa and International Association of Competition Law Scholars (ASCOLA)

'This topical study proposes introducing a subjective, non-exclusive right of all users to access and obtain the data that the data industry hides behind its walls. It would supersede or displace the current regulatory access control mechanisms and ease the transition to a general data-driven economy. Insistently argued, this academic advocacy of an individual rights approach to ordering data markets deserves to be discussed by all circles concerned.' Hanns Ullrich, Max Planck Institute for Innovation and Competition
