Introduction to competition law : EU, US and UK -- Some notes on crises -- Failing-firm defence -- Efficiencies -- Crisis cartels -- State aid (Phedon Nicolaides) -- Competition enforcement in periods of crisis -- Conclusion.

It provides a valuable practical guide for policy makers as well as practitioners in the field of competition policy.
