Cher lecteur,
The new issue of Eric on the website of the ligue concerns the international reports relating to the conference of Catania. Ce numéro a également trait à l’évolution de la législation et jurisprudence en matière de pratiques de commerce et de droit de la propriété intellectuelle, limitée à la France, la Belgique et le droit européen. We received also an interesting report of F. Banks about a EU competition court, and an article of E.A. Raffaelli about dominant position. Enfin, le groupe français, et nous l’en remercions vivement, nous a également fait parvenir un rapport d’activités. Bonne lecture, Alex Tallon 1.
