Committed to stimulate research in the field competition law and economics, a number of books have been produced under the auspices of the GCLC.

• Economic Analysis of State Aid Rules - Contributions and Limits: The proceedings of the third annual conference of the GCLC have been published by Lexxion. The book, edited by J. Derenne and M. Merola is entitled “Economic Analysis of State Aid Rules - Contributions and Limits” and can be ordered by Amazon and Buchhandel.de.



• Modernisation and Enlargement: This book comprises a set of papers that were prepared for and delivered at the Global Competition Law Centres Annual Conference Modernisation and Enlargement: Two Major Challenges for EC Competition Law. The book presents an analysis of the new Regulation 1/2003 on the implementation of the competition rules laid down in Article 81 and 82 of the Treaty. This new Regulation represents a cultural revolution for EC competition lawyers, who were accustomed to notifying agreements in order to obtain some legal certainty for their clients. Modernisation opens up a brand new world where corporations and their lawyers will be asked to self-assess the validity of their agreements under EC competition law. The book can be ordered by Intersentia.
