About

Competition law aims to make markets work better in order to deliver greater benefits to consumers.It involves the use of legal tools to control the acquisition and exercise of market power by firms so as to protect the competitive forces within the market. London School of Economics and Political Science offers the Competition Law and Policy - Contemporary Challenges in a Global Market programme.

Overview

Key facts

From the question of how to control the powerful ‘Tech Giants,’ to the global fight against hard-core cartels, and the unresolved issue of how to balance competition and innovation in merger assessment, competition law raises unique and important contemporary legal problems. The competition rules today thus present a powerful set of tools for public enforcers and private litigants to prevent and sanction harmful instances of private power.

London School of Economics and Political Science's Competition Law and Policy - Contemporary Challenges in a Global Market course aims to equip students with an in-depth understanding of what competition law entails, alongside the broader policy issues that it raises. Our focus is the structure and substance of the EU competition rules with a comparative assessment of other competition systems, particularly the laws of the United States. Since most competition systems globally borrow from one or both of these jurisdictions, the intention is to provide students with the necessary understanding and skills to address antitrust problems wherever in the world they arise.
