In the last couple of decades, competition policy has been receiving increasing attention and has obtained a central role in microeconomic policy in Europe. Ensuring that markets work as competitively as possible is viewed as key for economic growth and welfare. While much progress has been made in the research that studies and shapes competition policy, the nature of competition in markets is also evolving and new issues are emerging. An important novel feature is related to the increase in the size of the digital sectors of the economy and especially to the way that digital technologies and e-commerce practices revolutionize essentially all other sectors of the economy. These developments represent some new challenges for research. One key issue is that with digital markets and technologies we are more likely to have intense competition 'for the market', rather than competition 'in the market'. It follows that we need models that are more dynamic and incorporate to a larger extent network effects, other increasing returns to scale and uncertainty. At the same time, it is important that one does not ignore the lessons of the earlier and current literature, especially in core areas like pricing and vertical relations. On the empirical research side,

“…Much of the focus of this research has been on the effects of such technology inclusion on the market and on competition, including concerns about patent holdup, royalty stacking, and ambush or patent blocking (see, e.g., Lemley and Shapiro, 2007;Bessen, 2004;Farrell et al, 2007;Lindsay, 2012;Geradin et al, 2008;Sidak, 2009;Lerner and Tirole, 2015; and a 2014 article also by Josh Lerner and Jean Tirole in Science). The societal and policy relevance of this phenomenon is reflected in recent studies by the US National Academies of Science (Maskus and Merrill, 2013), reports by the Federal Trade Commission (e.g., FTC, 2011), studies conducted for the European Commission (e.g., Blind, 2011;, investigations by the European competition authorities (Buehler et al, 2014), and publications of standards-setting organizations (SSOs) themselves (e.g., ITU, 2014). The competition and antitrust concerns related to essential patents are also summarized in a recent special issue of the Antitrust Bulletin (see Besen and Levinson, 2012) and in a book published by the American Bar Association on the antitrust aspects of standards setting (Kobayashi and Wright, 2010).…”
