Environmental Integration in Competition and Free-Movement Laws engages in a comprehensive analysis of the obligation of Article 11 TFEU (integration of environmental protection requirements) in the three core areas of EU internal market law: competition, state aid, and free movement. It develops a theoretical framework for integrating environmental and other policies and compares how environmental integration takes place within competition, state aid, andfree movement law. In turn, it paves a way for a more transparent and consistent integration of environment protection in these three core areas of law.Structured in three parts, this volume (I) offers a detailed analysis of the historical development of environmental integration including discussions of the various intergovernmental conferences which led to a number of Treaty changes, shaping the obligation itself. (II) It investigates which provisions and concepts within competition law, state aid law, and the market freedoms can be interpreted in order to provide a clear demarcation of environmental protection and these areas of law. (III)It analyses how competition, state aid, and free movement law allow for a balancing of the environment against restrictions in cases of conflict.

Sustainability has received increasing attention in recent years, particularly surrounding concerns of poverty in the Global South, the climate emergency, the loss of biodiversity, and the COVID-19 pandemic. Competition and public authorities are more frequently encountering sustainability questions, while states are more generally called upon to foster sustainability by the UN Resolution 70/1. Against this backdrop, and drawing on cases and materials from different jurisdictions, Global Antitrust and Sustainability: Law, Economics, Enforcement explores the interaction between antitrust law and sustainability from the perspectives of law, economics, and the enforcement of such rules. The book introduces the concept of sustainability and its environmental, social, and economic pillars and then gathers key insights from economic theory and economic studies on the relationship between competition and sustainability. The subsequent chapters examine legal provisions, cases, and other materials from around the globe to analyse how competition agencies have responded to the sustainability challenge, and the effectiveness of their action. Insightful and pioneering, Global Antitrust and Sustainability makes timely recommendations to ensure that competition policy contributes to a more sustainable world and will be an invaluable resource for scholars, policymakers, and practitioners.This is an open-access title available under the terms of a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 International license.

Recent public debate on common ownership by institutional investors has brought awareness to one of the many intersections between the corporate and antitrust worlds. But the interplay between these two fields dates back to the dawn of US antitrust. This volume shines a light on the often underplayed and misunderstood connections between antitrust and corporate law and finance. It offers a multi-disciplinary perspective on highly trending issues, such as parallel equity holdings, interlocking directorships, the anticompetitive effects of certain corporate governance arrangements, and the relationships between ESG and not-for profit activities with antitrust law. This edited collection brings together leading experts from across the US, Europe, and Asia and provides a cross-border perspective on alternative policy approaches for the field. This book is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.

This Research Handbook explores the complex interplay between competition law and sustainability, and also provides key insights into the role and limitations that tax, environmental laws, consumer laws, and social laws have in promoting sustainability.A distinguished array of international experts examine core principles of environmental and social sustainability, delve into the economic dynamics that shape this multidimensional relationship, and critically analyse how competition law and policy can both positively and negatively shape sustainability outcomes. The Research Handbook presents a detailed overview of various policy questions surrounding sustainability and antitrust law – considering their economic, legal, and institutional aspects – and includes diverse jurisdictional perspectives which highlight the many nuances in this increasingly relevant interface.The Research Handbook on Sustainability and Competition Law is an essential resource for academics, researchers, and students of competition and antitrust law and environmental law. Its in-depth exploration of economic analysis, policy perspectives, and different legal avenues also make it an invaluable resource for legal professionals, policymakers, and government officials.
