This course, taught in English, focuses on competition law from a comparative perspective (with particular reference to the European Union and the United States). It aims to provide students with the tools for understanding antitrust policies and their concrete implementation through the study of EU and U.S. legislation, case law and enforcement practice. In addition to dealing with individual cases, the course includes in-depth study of specific topics related to sectors of interest (including digital markets) and the intersections between competition law and other areas of law, such as intellectual property law. In addition, the course provides for the active participation of students in the analysis and discussion of relevant case law and in the simulation of trials.
