One of the features of this process - and a prominent feature - is making itself felt in the field of industrial organization through a profound change in the structure of a large number of markets. In taking advantage of the larger market created by the elimination of national frontiers as barriers to trade, large firms playa leading role - firms from within the European Community and from outside. The merger device has been a major vehicle of expansion, and in several sectors of manufacturing industry this has already led to an in- crease in the relative importance of a few firms. Over the years, public opinion has become increasingly aware of the con- centration of industrial power and of itG attendant problems. Merger law and control of the operations of la: e corporations are current topics of discussion. More especially, merger statutes have recently been enacted in Britain and Germany, and the matter is coming to be one of the chief pre- occupations of the European Commission.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45283315089559,"sku":"9789020704730","price":7277.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9789020704730.webp?v=1769304660","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/antitrust-policy-versus-economic-power-9789020704730","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
