This reader provides a unique mix of American and European contributions to the study of particular markets, often combined with a critical evaluation of antitrust regulations, decisions or judgments. Part I explains market structure as a function of sunk costs and market size. Part II illustrates the central role of pricing schemes (including parallel pricing, delivered pricing and competition clauses) in sustaining equilibrium outcomes in oligopolistic markets. Parts III and IV give a game-theoretic foundation to competition policy and merger control. Louis Phlips offers a comprehensive introduction to the text in which he very carefully explains the reasoning behind his choice of papers, and provides a superb synthesis of the material. Particular highlights include the discussion and evaluation of antitrust regulations, which involve a systematic comparative analysis of European and American regulations, decisions and judgments in this area.

This 2000 text applies modern advances in game theory to the analysis of competition policy and develops some of the theoretical and policy concerns associated with the pioneering work of Louis Phlips. Containing contributions by leading scholars from Europe and North America, this book observes a common theme in the relationship between the regulatory regime and market structure. Since the inception of the new industrial organization, economists have developed a better understanding of how real-world markets operate. These results have particular relevance to the design and application of anti-trust policy. Analyses indicate that picking the most competitive framework in the short run may be detrimental to competition and welfare in the long run, concentrating the attention of policy makers on the impact on the long-run market structure. This book provides essential reading for graduate students of industrial and managerial economics as well as researchers and policy makers.

[...] Analizując metody stosowane obecnie w obrocie prawnym dla potrzeb dowodowych w przedmiotowym obszarze, można poczynić dwie obserwacje: stosowane (i rekomendowane) ekonomiczne metody dowodowe dotyczące weryfikacji istnienia horyzontalnych zachowań antykonkurencyjnych są zasadniczo metodami jakościowymi, opartymi na obserwacji pewnych arbitralnie zestawionych czynników sprzyjających oraz ich interpretacji,precyzyjny katalog metod ilościowych w przedmiotowym zakresie nie jest objęty żadną jednolitą rekomendacją. W związku z tym spostrzeżeniem, głównym celem, jaki starano się zrealizować, było wypełnienie pewnej luki w stanie wiedzy związanej z aplikacją metody naukowej w zakresie ekonomicznych dowodów pośrednich niekonkurencyjnych zachowań horyzontalnych. Miarą realizacji tego celu jest, poddany pod osąd Czytelnika, stopień i jakość scalenia i wskazania związków pomiędzy aktualną wykładnią prawa, teorią ekonomii a integrowanymi w ramach omawianych metod narzędziami analiz ilościowych. To z kolei prowadzi do zarysowania propozycji instrumentarium badawczego horyzontalnych zachowań antykonkurencyjnych, obejmującego zarówno metody detektorowe, modelowanie strukturalne czy testy oparte na pomiarze siły rynkowej, jak i techniczno-aplikacyjną stronę implementacji wymienionych metod.

Market Behaviour and Macroeconomic Modelling discusses several state-of-the-art developments in the modelling approach to market behaviour in macroeconomic modelling. Leading experts in this field, deal with the implications of market imperfections in commodity markets, capital markets and labour markets for macroeconomic modelling and stabilization policy. They demonstrate that incorporating market imperfections leads to very different policy recommendations than those derived from the standard perfect competition model.

This report examines the policy of the European Union towards agreements between firms from three perspectives. First, it considers what the literature in industrial economics has to say about the effects of such agreements on competition, and about the consequent rationale for public intervention. Second, it examines the decisions of the European Commission and the European Court, asking to what extent these are consistent with the recommendations that emerge from the scientific literature. Third, it looks at the procedures of the Commission and the way it undertakes investigations and reaches decisions, in order to see to what extent these procedures represent an appropriate means of implementing a defensible policy.

Managerial economics, meaning the application of economic methods in the managerial decision-making process, is a fundamental part of any business or management course. The current business environment presents managers with increasingly difficult decisions, amidst the Covid-19 pandemic and associated lockdowns, as well as the digital revolution and improved technology. Now in its second edition, this textbook features a new focus on how managerial economics has been transformed by the increasing importance of digitization within both the workplace and wider economy. It also features a new chapter on consumer theory, which emphasizes psychological factors and behavioural economics. Wilkinson adapts a user-friendly problem-solving approach to take the reader in gradual steps from simple problems through increasingly difficult material to complex case studies, demonstrating how to apply the principles of managerial economics to real-life situations. This book will be invaluable to business and economics students at both undergraduate and graduate levels.
