Fundamental to understanding economics of competition law and its implementation is the distinction between regulation for control and regulation for competition. Application of economic tools is then honed in distinguishing between traditional product market, platform markets, data markets and markets for ideas. This chapter basing on experience gives the reader a Commissioners analytical framework for assessing and implementing the law.
