International Investment Law and Competition Law

“The book provides a deep understanding of the clashes and overlaps between competition law and international investment law. … The broad spectrum of topics presented, together with the book’s consistency and clarity, makes it a welcome and timely addition to the international legal literature. It constitutes a useful reference for both academics and practitioners who seek guidance on the intricate clashes and overlaps between international investment and competition law.” (Federica Cristani, ICSID Review, September 2, 2021)
