Competition law and judges

This volume contains the papers presented at the third edition of the Seminar on Competition Law and Economics, sponsored and organised by the Rafael del Pino Foundation and held at its headquarters.

On 20 November 2006, the Rafael del Pino Foundation held its Third Seminar on Competition Law and Economics, thus continuing the series begun two years ago, which already enjoys well-deserved prestige and which has led to the publication of two excellent volumes (La modernización del Derecho de la Competencia en España y en la Unión Europea, 2005 and El abuso de la posición de dominio, 2006), co-published by the Foundation and the prestigious publishing house Marcial Pons, as well as the present work.
