Vilim Bouček
Faculty of Law University of Zagreb, Zagreb, Croatia
Collected Papers of Zagreb Law Faculty, Vol.62 No.5-6 February 2013
The author analyses the special provisions of Article 6, paragraphs 3 and 4 of the Rome II Regulation, which constitute new European private antitrust law. After an outline of the legal solutions preceding these provisions – those contained in the national regulations concerning private international law of certain EU member states, the case law of the Court of the EU based on primary EU law, i.e. the provisions of Articles 101 and 102 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (ex Articles 81 and 82 of the EC Treaty), and particularly Article 137 of the Swiss Private International Law Act of 1987 – the author analyses the said provisions of the Rome II Regulation, which protect free competition in terms of private international law.

What companies don’t know can hurt them: antitrust law developments in vertical restraints
By William R. Vigdor & Dennis S. Schmelzer
«Antitrust compliance properly focuses on agreements and communications between competitors because of the heightened risk associated with such conduct. Yet overreaching restrictions on distributors or customers can pose antitrust risk as well. This article provides a brief update on developments in the antitrust law of vertical restraints and highlights areas that continue to be complex, or areas where the law appears to be evolving. In-house counsel may wish to consider reviewing corporate compliance policies and distribution agreements to account for these changes.»

Long-term natural gas contracts and antitrust law in the European Union and the United States
Long-term natural gas contracts and antitrust law in the European Union and the United States.
Lecturer in International Energy and Resources Law at the UCL School of Energy and Resources, Australia. Member of the CoE Foundations of European Law and Polity. Editor-in-Chief for Oil, Gas and Energy Law Intelligence (www.ogel.org).
Abstract
Long-term natural gas contracts and their specific features are at the forefront of legal and policy discussions around the world. Issues like oil price indexation and price reviews, flexibility and take-or-pay clauses or a move to shorter term trading are being debated. This is particularly true for Europe where major changes are taking place, but also in places like Australia and Asia.
This study will focus on the antitrust treatment of long-term take-or-pay natural gas contracts and their specific provisions in the European Union and the United States. It will also examine the regulatory treatment of these contracts and the regulatory environment in which these contracts operate. Issues that are covered include questions on duration and volumes, take-or-pay provisions and oil indexation, destination or use restrictions, vertical integration and monopolization.
Harmonizing Antitrust and Patent Law
Harmonizing Antitrust and Patent Law by Elizabeth Winston :: SSRN.
Abstract:
Antitrust and intellectual property laws promote innovation and competition. As long as the costs of promotion do not exceed the benefit to society, then the laws act in harmony. Discord arises when patent holders use public and private ordering to restrain competition, restrict downstream trade, prevent the development of competing products and limit output by competitors. Using the Patent Act and the misperception of antitrust immunity to create a parallel and under-regulated legal system allows a small number of patent holders to coordinate their behavior to maximize profits and minimize competition. The Patent Act provides no shield to prosecution for antitrust violations – such is a patent misperception only. Harmony comes from balancing the costs of protection with the benefit to society. Innovation is best protected through the protection of intellectual property rights and the protection of competition.
