Mergers Under EEC Competition Law (Working Paper Series / Military Studies Institute,)

This book examines the Commission's approach to joint ventures and Community legislation regulating joint ventures, mergers and concentration in the EC. It discusses recent Mergers Regulation and analyzes the practical application of the laws. Much of the book is taken up with procedural aspects, looking at ways in which the Commission's practice affects the ability of firms to undertake joint activity. This book should be of interest to both legal practitioners and in-house counsel, and to academics and students in this field. Portwood's other publications include "Law of International Trade" (1990) and a number of case-notes and articles in the "Journal of International Banking Law".
