Abstract: Sustainability is a topic that is also gaining in importance for antitrust and competition authorities. The book investigates how competition law and competition authorities around the world deal with sustainability. It covers, economics, law, and enforcement matters. The book also sets out the basics of the concept of sustainability that are necessary for competition lawyers to work with such matters. It explores what economics has to say about the relationship between sustainability and competition. In the legal part, the book covers numerous jurisdictions ranging from developed to developing countries and the work of established and newer agencies. It investigates how competition law enforcement can foster sustainability and also discusses the legal tools available to ensure that competition law enforcement does not unnecessarily hinder sustainability activities by private actors. In a separate chapter, process matters and enforcement tools are considered, in particular those that are available to competition agencies to foster sustainability.
