‘An analysis of emerging trends in the application of abuse of dominance provisions is an ambitious endeavour, which the authors of this volume have remarkably achieved. Among the trends identified are an increased focus by courts on the intention to harm competition, new types of abuses and decentralization. These trends shape the authors’ analysis of the divergent manners in which Article 102 (and/or national equivalents) are interpreted and applied both at EU and national levels. Including a thorough study of recent national cases, this book’s comparative approach will provide relevant insight to the entire competition law world. I strongly endorse this book and congratulate the authors on their successful contributions.’
