| Summary |
"The aims of this book are threefold: firstly, to elucidate the antecedents of competition policy in the US and Europe and to demonstrate how far a convergence of principles has developed; secondly, to outline the theory of industrial organisation as a major tool to devise an appropriate policy; and, thirdly, to discuss the practice of competition policy in the USA, individual European countries and the EC as a whole, in terms of collusion, mergers and vertical restraints." "Manfred Neumann comprehensively explores the economic arguments that justify the need for competition policy. He considers the historical development of competition policy and the relationship between competition policy and the objectives of governmental policy as a whole. In conclusion, he argues that competition policy should be regarded as a constituent part of economic and social policy." |
