H. Education

Education is vital to the success of competition law. There is an essential role for universities, which should be equipped to provide education for the future regulators, judges, and practitioners of the subject. Such education needs to cover a range of matters including, but not limited to, competition law, administrative (public) law, industrial economics and organizational theory, econometrics, and accountancy. It is also important that literature should be published, in a format that is easily available, that describes the law and practice of a particular country and that explains the development of the law through decided cases. It is also important that there are well-informed media that are able to comment intelligently upon competition law in practice. Ultimately, what is needed, through education and the effective enforcement of competition law in a way that manifestly benefits citizens, is the development of a competition culture that is recognized and respected throughout civil society.
