- A comprehensive and self-contained work of reference for lawyers and academics, which allows quick access to reliable and detailed information on key topics and concepts in EC competition law
- Logically structured and easily accessible, each alphabetical entry provides a clear definition followed by a detailed explanation of the term or issue under consideration
- Thoroughly up-to-date and fully referenced to the relevant EC treaties, regulations, directives, notices, and case-law
- Written by a team of experts made up of academics, solicitors, barristers and officials at the EC DG Competition
- Offers proven reliability as the follow-up to the highly regarded first and second volumes on EC Institutional Law, and the Law of the Internal Market
This is the third of three self-contained volumes, making up the Oxford Encyclopaedia of EC Law, a major reference work on the law of the European Community/Union. The first of its kind in any language, it provides an authoritative guide to the interpretation of Community law. The first volume covered Institutional Law, and the second the Law of the Internal Market. This final volume focuses on competition law and policy, with separate entries devoted to competition law in specific business sectors, and other significant areas of competition law, such as exclusive agreements, merger control, state aid, and vertical agreements. A new edition of the volume of the Encyclopaedia covering Institutional Law (first published 1991) will be produced once the fate
of the European Constitution has been decided.
The entries are arranged alphabetically, and each entry begins with a short definition of a term or concept, followed by a longer and more detailed explanation. The definitions and explanations are based on the Treaties and the legal acts of the institutions (secondary legislation), as interpreted in the extensive case-law of the European Court of Justice and the Court of First Instance, to which full references are made in the text. The book is thoroughly cross-referenced, and each entry is followed by a reading list to facilitate further research. The volume thus contains a comprehensive and detailed coverage of its subject, reflecting the authoritative interpretation of Community law by the Community Courts.
There is a full list of entries at the beginning of the volume guiding the reader to the relevant term or concept, making the book easily accessible. There are comprehensive tables of cases, Treaties, international agreements and secondary legislation, plus an Index to the entire volume.
Prepared by a team of experts in the field of EC/EU law and competition law and policy, the volume will serve both as a reliable tool for practitioners looking for an authoritative and up-to-date explanation of a subject supported by an extensive citation of cases, and as a starting-point for advanced students or academics wishing to carry out further research in this area of the law. Readership:
Legal practitioners, judges, government officials, academics, post-graduate and advanced law students. It is an essential acquisition for all commercial, professional, and academic libraries.

"Reviews of the first volume The method of presentation is one of the work's strengths. The other strength lies in the clarity and succinctness of the writing. Each entry deals clearly and comprehensively with the relevant principles of law. The work is readable and difficult issues are done full justice. The book should make a useful reference work for anyone needing quick but reliable information." - Cambridge Law Journal
"there will be two further volumes ... if they are of the same quality as this first volume, the entire work will, in due course, represent a major contribution." - D.W. Bowett, The British Year Book of International Law
"Professor Toth has found the means to serve the two masters of concision and comprehensiveness at once, the former through the clarity and pungency of his expression, the latter by providing not only extensive references to case law and legal writing, but also the appropriate cross-references to other entries in the rest of the Encyclopaedia. If a book may be judged on the basis of one of its component parts, the Oxford Encyclopaedia of European Community Law is a very considerable achievement, whose utility is hardly open to doubt. It can confidently be expected to become a standard work which will take its place beside the Treaties in libraries and offices - and not just those devoted to the practice or study of law - within and outwith the Community. There only remains to await with
anticipation the appearance of the two companion volumes." - Kieran St. C. Bradley, European Law Review, 17 (1992)
