Regulating Competition in the Digital Network Industry
Cambridge University Press (Verlag)
978-1-009-67169-9 (ISBN)
This book proposes a wholly new view on digital competition. Digital firms compete to capture parts of the digital network industry. Once they control access points for competition, they get to decide who gets to compete and how. With their superior access to information and users, incumbents become the de facto regulators of their part of the digital network. Regulation that focuses on markets cannot capture these dimensions of power and competition. The system of Progressive Ecosystem Regulation proposed in this book explains how ecosystem competition can be stimulated to create meaningful competitive pressures, open up the network, and introduce real choice for users.
Jasper van den Boom is assistant professor of EU competition law at Leiden University and external researcher in the Shaping Competition in the Digital Age (SCiDA) project at the Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf. He is an expert in the area of digital competition and its regulation. His work focuses on competition in and between digital ecosystems, the Digital Markets Act and its enforcement, and comparative legal research for competition and antitrust matters.
