Summary
In the last decade, EU competition law rhetoric has attributed increased importance to 'consumer interest'. The enforcement of EU competition law often does not match these pronouncements as final consumers and their respective interests play only an ancillary role. The book starts from this observed inconsistency with the aim of strengthening the importance attributed to 'consumer interest' in the application and enforcement of EU competition law. By alluding to the difficulties in adopting a final consumer welfare standard in the substantive enforcement of EU competition law, the book explores an alternative route and focuses predominantly on consumer participation in private competition law enforcement.
