By bringing together analysis from well-known scholars from both developed and developing countries, the chapters in this book offer a thoughtful, precise, and relevant analysis of competition policy in BRICS and developing countries.
The proliferation of economic agents with market power, especially those operating in the digital economy and which add unprecedented dynamic and complexity to it, has sparked heated discussions among academics, professionals, and competition authorities around the world regarding the effects of their actions on the market and consumers. Unlike classic cartels – a conduct that has been treated as per se unlawful in Brazil, regardless of the production of effects under Brazilian competition law – unilateral conduct falls into a gray area, encompassing different practices with different effects on the market. In this sense, examples of unilateral conduct that may be considered anticompetit...
Written by expert scholars and practitioners, this unique Research Handbook presents the state of the art in research on, and the practice of, international design law.

This is the first international book of the Women in Antitrust Network and we could not be more grateful for the opportunity to carry out this project and happier with the result. The ambition to organize a book written by women from different countries and nationalities rose from the success of the national book "Mulheres no Antitruste", which is already in its 6th edition, as well as from the WIA's dream of expanding the reach of its projects and introducing them to women from antitrust academic community outside Brazil. Aiming to understand and pursue the most recent discussions on Antitrust Law in different jurisdictions, we invited brilliant authors to contribute with unpublished articl...
Following significant reforms over the last 20 years, merger control regimes in Latin America now constitute around 20% of merger regimes worldwide. In regard to global transactions that may trigger the notification thresholds in many of these jurisdictions, it became necessary that an up-to-date book analyzing current legislation and case law be available for practitioners. This book compiles for the first time the applicable law governing merger control in Latin America. More than 30 distinguished authors, from both private and enforcement backgrounds, cover 17 jurisdictions and the Caribbean Community (CARICOM). For each jurisdiction, the reader will find a presentation of the merger control system, a description of the applicable procedures, and an analysis of the most relevant case law on the subject. In addition, the editors, Paulo Burnier da Silveira and Pamela Sittenfeld, provide an overview of the merger regimes in Latin America, as well as a synthesis of the particularities of the regimes addressed in the book.
This book is the first detailed treatment of the approaches taken to enforce competition laws against cross-border cartels (CBCs) from the perspective of young and small competition authorities (more than 70% of the total number of authorities worldwide). No other legal or inter-disciplinary scholarship exists in the market that deals with the issue of a taxonomy of CBCs combined with young/small competition authorities' problems. The book looks at the extent of the harms caused by CBCs and issues associated with tackling them at a transnational level. It explains why past solutions to problems with cooperation have failed and proposes novel ideas on how to improve cooperation and coordinati...
MAIS UMA VEZ o Insper publica em parceria com a Almedina um livro sobre direito dos contratos. Como todos os anos, a publicação me traz uma grande alegria, pois é o resultado de um esforço muito grande dos alunos, que eu tenho a satisfação de acompanhar de perto. Esse ano, minha admiração pelos alunos que foram escolhidos é ainda maior. Cada um deles enfrentou na vida pessoal e profissional desafios inimagináveis por conta da pandemia e ainda tiveram tempo de escrever um artigo de qualidade que merece ser publicado pela maior editora jurídica de língua portuguesa. [...] Tenho certeza que todos os artigos são de grande valia aos operadores do direito e enriquecem imensamente a discussão doutrinária atual. Com muito orgulho, boa leitura! In Apresentação, de Maria Isabel Carvalho Sica Longhi
Populism and Antitrust examines the influence of populism on competition law and shows how populism can lead to illiberal changes.
This comprehensive Handbook illuminates the objectives and economics behind competition law. It takes a global comparative approach to explore competition law and policy in a range of jurisdictions with differing political economies, legal systems and stages of development. A set of expert international contributors examine the operation and enforcement of competition law around the world in order to globalize discussions surrounding the foundational issues of this topic. In doing so, they not only reveal the range of approaches to competition law, but also identify certain basic economic concepts and types of anticompetitive conduct that are at the core of competition law.
