Harmonisation and the EU Internal Market : a Law and Economics Approach

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explore the link between the economic theory of federalism and the economics of integration and show that there are hardly any limits to the possibilities to harmonise rules for completing the internal market if one follows the logic of the economic concept of market integration.

Promotion and Harmonization of Antitrust Damages Claims by Directive EU/2014/104?

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors assess the features of the Directive and the challenges it poses for its implementation by Member States, and assess the impact of this Directive on the enforcement of competition law.

Leniency and Damages

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that damage actions may actually improve the effectiveness of a leniency program, through a legal regime in which the civil liability of the immunity recipient is minimized (as in Hungary) and full access to all evidence collected by the competition authority, including leniency statements, is granted to claimants.
