Harmonization of Romanian Law to EU Competition Law
Harmonization of Romanian Law to EU Competition Law

Summary/Abstract: Competition Law has always been a sensitive issue for the EU. Many Union wide objectives are fulfilled by articles 101 and 102 and any country that adheres to the Union must respect the ample primary and secondary sources of European Competition Law. Since all European sources of Competition Law are also internal sources of law, one cannot correctly apply national competition laws without understanding the EU competition legal framework. There are three core areas governed by this regime: antitrust law, abuse of dominant position and concentrated practices. All these areas have been more or less efficiently covered by the Romanian Law, as this parallel analysis will show. The harmonization process was long and difficult in Romania partially because the changes in EU legislation have always taken some time to be implemented in Romanian Law.
