Causation in Competition Law Damages Actions cover

Elucidates the concept of causation in competition law damages and outlines its practical implications through relevant case law.

Illuminating the concept and practical implications of causation in competition litigation, this work is an excellent resource for practitioners, scholars, and graduate students with experience in competition law. Lombardi's comparative analysis of relevant statutory and case law will also appeal to readers generally interested in analyzing economic torts and causation.Competition law damages actions are often characterized by the uncertainty of the causal connection between the infringement and the harm. The damage consists in a pure economic loss flowing from an anticompetitive conduct. In such cases, the complexity of the markets structures, combined with the interdependence of individuals' assets, fuel this causal uncertainty. In this work, Claudio Lombardi elucidates the concept of causation in competition law damages actions and outlines its practical implications in competition litigation through the comparative analysis of the relevant statutory and case law, primarily in the European Union. This book should be read by practitioners, scholars, and graduate students with experience in competition law, as well as those interested in analyzing economic torts and causation in general.
