  • Categories: Law

This timely book, with contributions from prominent experts including Luis Ortiz Blanco, Valentine Korah, Ernst-Joachim Mestmäcker, Lorenzo F. Pace and Richard Whish, examines the novel aspects of the 2009 Guidance on Article 102.

They also reveal the history and development of the relevant national legislation on prohibitions of unilateral conduct.
