...a vitally important book on procurement law. -- Christopher R. Yukins and Lieutenant Colonel Jose A. Cora This outstanding new monograph by Albert Sanchez Graells, a first book by a young academic, provides a fresh perspective [and] remains a powerfully argued piece of scholarship which is certain to influence the academic debates further. -- John Townsend * Modern Law Review vol 75 issue 4 * Graell's book provides an extensive analysis of the variety of ways that public procurement closely interacts with competition laws and policies. ...Graell's book offers a comprehensive insight into EU public procurement and competition laws and policies...the book is researched, argued and presented to a very high standard. Throughout the book, Graell's analysis is focused and disciplined; the economic and legal building blocks to his argument are set out meticulously. Thus Graells puts forward an essential and original dimension to the public procurement debate that is simultaneously theoretical and practical. -- Kamala Dawar * Legal Issues of Economic Integration Volume 38, Issue 4 * ...a daring legal policy analysis founded on economic theory and resulting in a number of recommendations for amendment of the public procurement rules/practices. ...the book is very well written and the reference list is impressive (which in itself makes the book worth reading). I warmly recommend every scholar, with some knowledge of economic theory, interested in the fields of competition and public procurement law to indulge in this book: it is a very welcome contribution to the debate on the interaction between public procurement law and competition law. -- Grith Skovgaard Olykke * Common Market Law Review 48(6) * ... the question of the relationship between public procurement law and competition law of the European Union is not one to have excessively mobilized researchers and doctrine ... It therefore seems that the work of Mr. Sanchez Graells [...] will help fill a gap...At a time when the Commission is embarking on a process of modernization of the EU policy on public procurement [...] Albert Sanchez Graells' book will help and contribute to this reflection. -- Stephane Rodrigues * Concurrences N 2-2011, n Degrees36171, p. 246 *

Reseña del editor

Public procurement and competition law are both important fields of EU law and policy, intimately intertwined in the creation of the internal market. Hitherto, their close connection has been noted, but not closely examined. This book is the most comprehensive attempt to date to explain the many ways in which these fields - often considered independent of one another - interact and overlap in the creation of the internal market. In this process of convergence between competition and public procurement law, the need for this joint study is clearly apparent. As such, the book asks whether competition law principles inform or condition public procurement rules, and whether they are adequate to ensure that competition is not distorted in markets where public procurement is particularly significant. The book moves away from the classic focus of public procurement on the activities of private actors, developing instead an analytical framework for the appraisal of the market behavior of the public buyer from a competition perspective. The analysis is both legal and economic. Proceeding through a careful assessment of the general rules of competition and public procurement, the book constantly tests the efficacy of the rules in competition and public procurement against a standard of the proper functioning of undistorted competition in the market for public procurement.
