This book presents the contributions to an international conference co-organised by the Polish Competition Authority and the Centre for Antitrust and Regulatory Studies (CARS) of the University of Warsaw, Faculty of Management. The conference took place on 13-14 October 2015 in Warsaw and gathered competition law practitioners from the US, the European Commission and a number of national competition authorities from several EU Member States. Many representatives of academia from both Poland and abroad were also present. The participants of the conference took an active part in panel discussions, presented scientific papers and benefited from the possibility to participate in many interesting exchanges of professional opinions and practical experience. What characterized this publication the most is that it represents both theoretical as well as practical approach to the application of economics in competition law enforcement. It is the first publication offering both Polish and foreign economic and legal contributions that look for an optimal solution for the use of economic analyses and tools in the administrative decision-making process by competition authorities as well as in the judicial review process following such decisions.
