Changes to the EC system such as the abandonment of the Vertical Exclusions order and the modernisation programme and the changes this necessitates are also fully considered. This compact text introduces the student to basic economic principles underpinning the law of competition and by maintaining an up to date awareness of all the latest radical developments equips them with the information they require for any undergraduate competition law course.
