CERRE is pleased to announce that the 2022 Antitrust Writing Awards Jury has elected the article “The European Digital Markets Act: A Revolution Grounded on Traditions” by CERRE academics Pierre Larouche and Alexandre de Streel as the winning Academic Articles Article in the category Digital.
The last three years have seen a legislative acceleration in tech regulation in Europe and in December 2020, the European Commission tabled a very significant Digital Markets Act (DMA) proposal to increase market contestability and fairness in the digital economy. The paper ‘The European Digital Markets Act: A revolution grounded on traditions’ by Pierre Larouche and Alexandre de Streel aims to decipher those policy choices, and show that they are often in line with EU regulatory tradition. At the same time, it proposes improvements to better reap the benefits (or minimize the downsides) of those policy choices.
The Antitrust Writing Awards 2022 are organised by Concurrences and The George Washington University Law School’s Competition Law Center. This annual event promotes competition scholarship and contributes to competition advocacy by selecting the best antitrust writings published in the past year.
This decision is the result of a 3-month process involving 60 international antitrust experts, and 600 articles that have been reviewed. You can see the voting process on the Awards website.
Congratulations to the winners. You can now read all award-winning Academic Articles, in over 10 categories, on the Antitrust Writing Awards website.
