Antitrust laws and proceedings in Europe, both at the Community and national levels, shape the European and international business landscape profoundly. It is therefore essential that business leaders and legal practitioners remain informed of the most important antitrust law developments and their effect on the business world.

 Vertical Restraints
 Horizontal Agreements
 Abuse of Market Power
 Mergers & Acquisitions
 State Aid
 Policy and Procedures

The insightful and concise analysis of major antitrust actions contained in this yearbook will be invaluable to antitrust legal practitioners, in-house counsel, businesspeople and others with an interest in the field.
