Summary:
"This volume [I] of the collection, Current Issues in Competition Law, covers various topics of considerable importance and concern. The focus is on the Australian statutory topography and the collection is avowedly concerned with debates and issues of contemporary importance. The volume is divided into three parts. The first considers the historical and theoretical background underpinning Australia's competition law; the second addresses questions of statutory interpretation common throughout, and specific to, this jurisprudence; and, the third examines the application of this law to new and emerging markets. The chapters provide perspectives from the judiciary, the regulator, the practising profession, and the academy, including a foreword by the Honourable Chief Justice Allsop AO." --
