Questioning the Role of Competition Law in the 21st Century

Recent developments in digital markets and the EU's geopolitical landscape have arguably given renewed impetus to the process of regulating markets in the 21th century (DMA, Data Act, AI Act) and called for the application of all sorts of fields of law in dealing with crisis. The edited collection brings together various innovative proposals of young competition law scholars mapping out the new role traditional competition law plays in new markets and in times of crisis. The volume discusses both normative innovations, the scope of antitrust regulations, and the evolving objectives of antitrust enforcement. It also explores the interplay between regulatory law and state aid law as tools of crisis management.
