This book explores the distinction between private and public aspects in competition law and focuses on how the concept of competition is incorporated into the legal framework. Distinguishing between antitrust regulations and competition-related legal rules in private law, such as unfair competition and contract laws, the book also differentiates between the utilitarian and deontological principles that underpin competition regulation. This historical and philosophical approach is used to compare two influential jurisdictions: England and Spain. These legal systems have had a significant impact on the development of legal rules in Common law and Civilian (Latin American) countries, respectively. Through this lens, the book further analyses the concept of "competition" and its value in each legal tradition. This understanding, in turn, helps clarify the scope of competition regulation within antitrust and private law and how the two fields coexist. Additionally, the book examines the role of property law theory in the context of competition regulation. The book will be of interest to students and scholars in the field of competition law, tort law, and legal history.

Territorial autonomy in Spain has reached a crossroads. After over thirty years of development, the consensus regarding its appropriateness has started to crumble. The transformation project embodied by the reform of Statute of Catalonia (2006) has failed to achieve its most significant demands. Although the concept of Spain as a Federation is disputed -more within the country than beyond-, the evolution of the Spanish system needs to follow a markedly federalist path. In this perspective, reference models assume critical importance. This edition gathers the works of a broad group of European, American and Spanish experts who analyse the present-day challenges of their respective systems. Th...
Everyone would agree that urban development, especially when involving the building of residential areas, should be accompanied by sufficient and good public infrastructure and facilities. We all want neighbourhoods with the necessary roads, green areas, social facilities, affordable housing and public spaces of high quality. At the same time, nowadays, governments are facing severe cuts in public expenditure. So who is going to pay for all that quality? In the Netherlands and in many other countries, achieving these public goals has become a problem, especially in the regeneration of deteriorated inner-city sites. This book offers insight in how the economic value increase that arises from ...

El Derecho urbanístico del siglo XXI. Libro homenaje al Profesor Martín Bassols Coma. Urbanismo y Vivienda. Coordinador: Olmo Alonso, Jesús del
La ejecución de sentencias es una de las fases procesales más importantes de cualquier proceso judicial. Tanto es así que - como se explica en esta obra- sin ella no habría potestad jurisdiccional sino únicamente función de judicación. Sin embargo, los problemas de ejecución de sentencias en el orden contencioso-administrativo no solo han venido de la mano de las conocidas resistencias de las administraciones públicas a cumplir las que les fueran adversas sino, y en lo que a función pública se refiere, a una legislación que delimita una realidad jurídica que en más de las veces no encaja con lo definido y juzgado por la decisión judicial. En estos casos, y frente a la creencia...
