    Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development 2006; US$ 91.00

  • Competition Law and Policy in Latin Americaby Eleanor M Fox; D. Daniel Sokol

    Hart 2009; US$ 187.20

    This book offers an unparalleled analysis of the emerging law and economics of competition policy in Latin America. Nearly all Latin American countries now have competition laws and agencies to enforce them. Yet, these laws and agencies are relatively young. The relative youth of Latin American competition agencies and the institutional and political environment in which they operate limit the ability of agencies to effectively address anti-competitive conduct. Competition policy is a tool to overcome anti-market traditions in Latin America. Effective competition policy is critical to assisting in the growth of Latin American economies, their global competitiveness, and improving the welfare of domestic consumers. This book provides new region... more...

Dass Stellvertretung, Vertrag zugunsten Dritter, Gesamtgläubiger- und ?schuldnerschaft, Abtretung und Forderungsbesicherung heute auf unterschiedliche Bereiche der Rechtsgeschäftslehre und Schuldrechtsdogmatik verteilt sind, verdeckt den funktionellen und konstruktiven Zusammenhang dieser Einrichtungen. Sich ihm und einzelnen Fragen der Drittbeteiligung zu nähern war das Ziel einer Tagung im Kloster Bronnbach. Die hierzu geleisteten Beiträge werden mit diesem Band vorgelegt. more...
