A Critical Mind
This book traces the academic footprint of Hanns Ullrich. Thirty contributions revolve around five central topics of his oeuvre: the European legal order, competition law, intellectual property, the regulation of new technologies, and the global market order. Acknowledging him as a trailblazer, the book aims to capture how deeply Hanns Ullrich has influenced contemporaries and subsequent generations of scholars. The contributors re-iterate the path-breaking patterns of his teachings, such as his contemplation of intellectual property as embedded in competition, the necessity of balancing private and public interests in intellectual property law, the policies of market integration, and the peculiar relationship of technological advancement and protectionism.
Competition and Sustainability
Competition and Sustainability critically examines how the market economy can be preserved without compromising the Sustainable Development Goals of the UN. Serving as a useful overview of the problems and solutions found in one of the most controversial issues in current antitrust doctrine, this topical book offers concrete policy options for EU competition law.
Multi-dimensional Approaches Towards New Technology

To do so, it discusses four specific themes: (a) policies governing functioning of standard setting organizations (SSOs), transparency and incentivising future innovation; (b) issue of royalties for standard essential patents (SEPs) and related disputes; (c) due process principles, procedural fairness and best practices in competition law; and (d) coherence of patent policies and consonance with competition law to support innovation in new technologies.

Die kartellrechtliche Zulässigkeit von Musterversicherungsbedingungen
Nach der Deregulierung der Versicherungsmärkte in den 1990er Jahren traten unverbindliche Musterversicherungsbedingungen der Versicherungsverbände an die Stelle der behördlich genehmigten allgemeinen Versicherungsbedingungen (AVB). Der europäische Gesetzgeber hatte Musterversicherungsbedingungen über einen langen, allerdings befristeten, Zeitraum von der Anwendung des Kartellverbots freigestellt. Seit dem Wegfall dieser gesetzlichen Freistellung im Jahr 2010 muss für alle Musterversicherungsbedingungen überprüft werden, ob sie mit dem europäischen Kartellverbot des Art. 101 AEUV vereinbar sind. Orientierungshilfe geben teilweise die Horizontalleitlinien der europäischen Kommission. Doch trotz dieser Leitlinien ist die kartellrechtliche Beurteilung von Musterversicherungsbedingungen nicht eindeutig geklärt. Die Verfasserin untersucht, inwieweit Musterversicherungsbedingungen mit dem europäischen Kartellverbot des Art. 101 AEUV vereinbar sind. Hierbei analysiert sie auch die Schnittstellen zum gewerblichen Rechtsschutz und Urheberrecht. Das Buch richtet sich gleichermaßen an Unternehmens- und Verbandsjuristen, Rechtsanwälte, Kartellbehörden und Rechtswissenschaftler.
Market definition and market power in the platform economy
With the rise of digital platforms and the natural tendency of markets involving platforms to become concentrated, competition authorities and courts are more frequently in a position to investigate and decide merger and abuse cases that involve platforms. This report provides guidance on how to define markets and on how to assess market power when dealing with two-sided platforms. DEFINITION Competition authorities and courts are well advised to uniformly use a multi-markets approach when defining markets in the context of two-sided platforms. The multi-markets approach is the more flexible instrument compared to the competing single-market approach that defines a single market for both sid...
The Future of Secured Credit in Europe
This volume contains the reports and discussions presented at the conference "The Future of Secured Credit in Europe" in Munich from July 12th to July 14th, 2007. It aims at taking the debate to a new stage by exploring the need and possible avenues for creating a European law of security interests. The first part examines – from an economic and a community law perspective – the case for European lawmaking on secured credit and the legislative approach to be taken. The intention in the second and third part is to look in more detail at the choices European lawmakers will have to make in devising a European law of secured credit. The second part focuses on secured transactions involving corporeal movables (tangibles), whereas the third part considers categories of collateral that may require special rules.
