In dealing with scarce land, planners often need to interact with,
and sometimes confront, property right-holders to address complex
property rights situations. To reinforce their position in
situations of rivalrous land uses, planners can strategically use
and combine different policy instruments in addition to standard
land use plans. Effectively steering spatial development requires a
keen understanding of these instruments of land policy. This book
not only presents how such instruments function, it additionally
examines how public authorities strategically manage the scarcity
of land, either increasing or decreasing it, to promote a more
sparing use of resources. It presents 13 instruments of land policy
in specific national contexts and discusses them from the
perspectives of other countries. Through the use of concrete
examples, the book reveals how instruments of land policy are used
strategically in different policy contexts.

The Institute of Competition Law had the privilege to collect
contributions of the "Global Competition Law Conference," organized
by Professors David Gerber and Sungjoon Cho, held on October 28,
2011 at Chicago-Kent College of Law. The Conference's goals to
expand the discussion on the future of competition law on the
global level fully embody the Institute's mission. This collating
volume includes ten contributions signed by prominent antitrust
practitioners and academics. Readers will be offered the
opportunity to explore the various views on the current and future
developments of competition law on the global level as enlightened
by David J. Gerber, Eleanor M. Fox, William E. Kovacic, David A.
Hyman, Xiaoye Wang, Laurence Idot, Spencer Weber Waller, Andre
Fiebig, Javier Cortazar-Mora, Wentong Zeng, and Mor Bakhoum."
Global competition now shapes economies and societies in ways
unimaginable only a few years ago, and laws shape and maintain
global competition, determining how effective global markets are
and how they distribute benefits and harms. Competition (or
"antitrust") law plays a central role in this framework of law.
These laws are intended to protect the competitive process from
distortion and restraint, and in the domestic context, they embody
and reflect the relationships between markets, their participants
and those affected by them.
On the global level, however, competition law is provided by those
players that have sufficient "power" to apply their laws
transnationally. In practice, this means that the US and the EU
generally provide the competition law principles for global
competition. This book examines this important and controversial
aspect of globalization.
Part I examines the evolution of the current system of competition
law for global markets, the factors that have shaped it, and how it
operates today. There was once a widespread belief that harm to
global competition was an international problem that should be
addressed through international coordination, but the Cold War
submerged this ideal and led to the current system. Since the 1990s
efforts have been made to develop transnational cooperation in this
area, but the basic system remains in place. The evolution and
operation of this system cannot be understood without understanding
the factors in national experience that have shaped them.
The second part of the book focuses on these national experiences
and the roles they have played in the evolution of the global
system. It examines US and Europeanexperience as well as the
experience of the newer players such as China that will necessarily
play major roles in the future.
Finally, the book examines the potential for creating a system
that functions more effectively and provides more support for
global economic and political development. Drawing on parts I and
II and on social science as well as legal literature, it identifies
the factors that will play a role in moving towards a more
effective legal framework for global competition and suggests a
pathway for needed reforms.
Protecting economic competition has become a major objective of government in Western Europe, and is playing a key role in European Integration. Competition law has, therefore, become a central part of economic and legal experience. This book examines European experience in protecting competition, analysing its dynamics, revealing its importance and highlighting the political and economic issues it raises.
