Competition law and the digital economy: the framework of remedies in the digital era in the EU

Stavros Aravantinos

European Competition Journal, 2021, vol. 17, issue 1, 134-155

Abstract: In the present paper, we consider the question of the effectiveness of the remedies imposed by the EC. Our fundamental analysis stems from the reciprocal influence between Competition Law and the Digital Economy. Nowadays, Competition Law has a profound role, affecting not only direct undertakings worldwide but also indirectly by having an impact on our daily life and protecting customers. In recent years, however, the idea of creating a culture of innovation among companies has prevailed. For more than 20 years, the Digital Economy is also part of our life characterizing markets by rapid innovation and technological sophistication. The digital era has introduced the global network of economic activities and commercial transactions enabled by information and communication technologies. Through innovative products/ideas, not only the companies themselves benefit by increasing their productivity and consequently constantly creating new jobs (Alibaba, Amazon), but also consumers having the opportunity to choose a plethora of products at the best possible price.
