all the rules but this is never feasible, particularly in cross-border contexts, where it is extremely likely that there is at least one jurisdiction in which the lawyer is not qualified. Rather, it advises the reader on the proper questions and how to ask them, and it brings together in one text history, context and legal analysis that would typically require extensive reading of multiple sources, as well as at least a modicum of experience in the City or on Wall Street. In sum, it should bring the serious reader to a higher level of legal sophistication on international commercial law. This book takes on the risky task of examining a wide range of subjects in international and comparative commercial and financial law in single volume. Dalhuisen does an impressive job, however, of pulling it all together. For those who want or need to study commercial law beyond the legal rules of any one jurisdiction or nation, this book is an essential reference.

This article introduces to the literature of industrial conflict an examination of the relationship between legally enforceable disputes procedures and the comparatively low incidence of workshop industrial action in Sweden and Germany. The author suggests that the experience in both countries indicates that the existence of a trade union commitment to an organizational strategy which limits workplace industrial action in exchange for returns from other levels of bargaining is an important factor explaining both the effect of the social institutions and the legal norms which attempt to reinforce them.

This article identifies a tendency of UK judges to apply an exaggerated contractual test to certain types of protective employment legislation, eg 'place of work' and 'kind of work' in the definition of redundancy, 'continuity of service' and 'employee'. It points out where the judges themselves have corrected certain inappropriate interpretations but also shows that the tendency persists. The article goes on to suggest that the reason for the tendency is an unwillingness by certain judges to accept protective employment legislation as an autonomous layer of regulation. It also suggests a method to achieve a more consistent interpretation of existing protective legislation as well as the need for new legislation to resolve the difficulties in respect of certain statutory provisions.

This book assembles 17 contributions based on talks given at the fourth conference of the Academic Society for Competition Law (ASCOLA) which was held at the Competition Law Center of the George Washington University Law School in Washington DC on 16–17 June 2009. All the contributions take account of the legal development until the end of 2010. The choices of conference venue and topic were very timely. After the collapse of the fi nancial markets in the fall of 2008, scepticism toward what economic theory can explain and predict has increased enormously, also in the fi eld of competition law. The beginning of the fi nancial crisis coincided with the election of a new US president and the coming into offi ce of new decisionmakers at the US antitrust agencies, which raised the question whether the new administration would turn away from its former lenient approach in the fi eld of unilateral conduct, with regard to intellectual property in particular, and increase its enforcement ac...

Widely read and appreciated in its first edition by students, academics, and junior practitioners, this was the first book to offer an accessible introduction to the interface between competition law and intellectual property rights. Now fully updated, but retaining the accessible approach, it continues to represent an ideal gateway to this increasingly dynamic interface, offering a sound introduction to the topic based on thorough legal analysis. It provides a foundation to EU competition law rules as they relate to intellectual property rights and explores how such a template can be applied to existing intellectual property rights and adapted to new technologies such as telecommunications and information technology. It demonstrates how, both under the EU law and as a matter of economic policy, EU competition law must provide a set of outer limits to, and a framework of rules which regulate, the exploitation and licensing of intellectual property rights. This book offers a comprehe...
