DESCRIPTION:Abstract
Industrial policy has recently gained prominence in the policy agenda in many countries. It figures prominently in the plans of the new European Commission. In September this year\, the report by Mario Draghi on competitiveness was released\, which is likely to shape the thinking of policymakers in the EU. As part of the debate on industrial policy\, it contains proposals on how to overhaul competition law. Martin Peitz will report on the current policy debate and critically examine some of the reform proposals.
