    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Short description:

    This book provides the first detailed examination of how individuals or companies can enforce their rights under competition law against other private parties in the EU, UK and USA. The author, an experienced practitioner in the field, provides a comparative analysis of how the issues that are central to US private litigation such as locus standi, antitrust injury, methods of proof of damage and the principles of antitrust damage calculation should be addressed in the EU and UK. Specific examples of US case law and the judicial application of damage rules are examined in detail so as to draw practical conclusions for antitrust legislation in Europe.

    Long description:

    This book provides the first detailed examination of how private individuals and companies can enforce their rights under competition law against other private parties in the EU and UK. It provides a comprehensive analysis of the legal basis for private antitrust enforcement both under EC and the new UK law, and of the available procedures and remedies.

    The book then goes on to systematically survey all of the key issues of law and practice that arise in private antitrust litigation in the USA, such as locus standi, antitrust injury, methods of proof of damage, types of damage for which compensation is recoverable, and the principles of antitrust damage calculation. In each case, the author draws upon his experience of such litigation as a practitioner in the USA to set out detailed practical conclusions as to how the same issues should be addressed in the EU and UK.

    ... Clifford Jones's net achievement is double: he places private enforcement of EC competition law in the more general context of effectiveness of Community law, and at the same time he succeeds in clearing many European misconceptions on the US system of private antitrust enforcement. ... this is an excellent and prescient book that should appeal not just to competition but also to general Community lawyers.
