This publication offers a comparative analysis of two significant topics in antitrust and unfair competition laws across key countries. The first part explores whether small and medium-sized enterprises, which represent 99% of businesses in Europe and the U.S., should be subject to specific competition rules. Contributions examine public and private enforcement rules in various jurisdictions, with an international report by Michele Carpagnano identifying trends and notable differences in national regulations. The second part addresses unfair competition, focusing on whether companies should be protected against the misuse of their trademarks and distinctive signs by non-competing firms. The papers delve into the competitive relationship necessary for protection under unfair competition laws and its link to intellectual property rights. An insightful international report by Martine Karsenty-Ricard synthesizes these discussions by comparing national perspectives. Additionally, the book includes resolutions from the General Assembly of the LIDC, which provide proposed solutions and recommendations following debates on these subjects. The International League of Competition Law (LIDC) is a well-established association that examines the intersection of competition law and intellectual property law, including issues of unfair competition.
