Digital antitrust

This book is dedicated to the changes in competition and its protection in digital markets, especially those where large online platforms such as Google, Apple or Facebook operate. It analyses the impacts of the digitalisation of the economy and the conduct of large online platforms from the perspective of EU competition law, including the very latest regulations, such as the Digital Markets Act. It also pays attention to the consequences of the rapid and versatile development of artificial intelligence and deals with the theoretical grasp of new phenomena in the digital economy that pose problems for classic concepts of competition protection – antitrust. The book is intended for lawyers, economists, and anyone interested in the regulation of markets, the protection of the competitive environment against hypertrophied economic power, and thus also the future development of an increasingly digitalised society.
