About the Authors
  • Separation of powers and antitrust deal with power and occupy centre stage in our challenging, digital times, but their interactions have not yet been analysed. This timely and ground-breaking book provides an innovative cross-disciplinary analysis of the potential convergence of these two fields. Notably, Vincent Martenet examines the concentration of politico-economic power in the hands of a few digital firms which have adopted private regulation, impacting an entire industry and society at large. He combines doctrinal method with historical developments, case studies, assessment of legislative proposals, and observations on the functioning of digital markets and democracy in the digital era. The book sketches important new axes of the separation of powers and suggests that antitrust may contribute, albeit in a limited way, to greater trust in both society and democracy: 'antitrust for trust', the ultimate apparent antitrust paradox.

    • Combines doctrinal method with illustrative case studies to make the theory accessible for readers without specialized training in antitrust or constitutional law
    • Includes interdisciplinary and multi-disciplinary perspectives, demonstrating how constitutional and antitrust principles can interact
    • Focuses on key digital platforms to provide readers with the keys to understanding the need for regulatory and antitrust reform
