Les autorités allemandes de surveillance et de régulation, gardiennes de la concurrence - Paris : ENA, 2005

Over the past ten years, competition regulation in Germany has undergone considerable transformation. The reform known as “sectorialisation” has introduced important changes in the system of competition authorities. Previously limited to banks, insurance and securities, competition control has been extended to telecommunications, the post office, railroads, and even broadcasting. The author examines this transformation, noting the legal aspects, the issues involved and problems raised. He then discusses it in the context of Europe and the gradual harmonising of the situations existing today in each of the Member States
