This comprehensive book delves into the intricate workings of enterprises in the digital economy, employing an economic and comparative lens to examine their business models. Its primary objective is to undertake a thorough analysis of the anti-competitive practices exhibited by companies that dominate data, highlighting the urgent need for regulations to curb data monopolies. By exploring the root causes and distinctive characteristics of these anti-competitive behaviors, the book aims to provide valuable insights into the realm of data monopolies.

In its exploration, the book examines four key aspects that differentiate data monopolies from traditional monopolistic behavior. These include defining the relevant market for data monopolies, assessing the entry barriers to such markets, determining the dominant position of data monopolies, and evaluating the impact on consumer welfare. It sheds light on the limitations of traditional regulatory tools and proposes innovative approaches within the competition legal framework to restrict data monopolies. Furthermore, the book discusses the challenges faced by economic analytical tools used in traditional anti-monopoly law and proposes strategies for competition enforcement agencies to adapt their regulatory methods to address emerging anti-competitive behavior by data monopolies.

Overall, this book serves as a valuable resource for scholars, policymakers, and industry professionals seeking to understand the complex dynamics of the digital economy and the challenges posed by data monopolies. By offering a comprehensive analysis and proposing practical solutions, it contributes to the ongoing debate on competition law and policy in the digital age.
