反垄断国际合作中的积极礼让原则分析

经济全球化的发展使得反竞争行为也全球化了。当来自国外的反竞争行为影响到一个国家的经济利益,而域外管辖权的行使又受到较大制约时,积极礼让原则的运用可以有效协调相关国家间的关系,共同遏止反竞争行为。积极礼让的基本特征是它的自愿性。自愿性既是积极礼让存在的现实基础,又在一定程度上限制其作用的发挥。但作为经济合作与发展组织多年倡导并为许多双边协议所确认的避免域外管辖权冲突和实施反垄断法合作的一个基本方式,积极礼让在未来的国际反垄断合作中还会发挥更大的作用。

The development of economic globalization makes anti - competitive actions also globalized. The implementation of the principle of positive comity can coordinate efficiently the relations between concerned countries in order to restrict or eliminate anti - competitive actions jointly, when the anti - competitive actions from abroad affects economic benefit of a country and to exercise its jurisdictional power is restricted. The basic feature of positive comity is its voluntariness. While being the realistic foundation for the existance of the positive comity principle, voluntariness may also limit the role of positive comity. As one of the basic means, initiated by OECD for many years and adopted by certain bilateral agreements, for solving conflicts on jurisdictional powers and implementing anti - monopoly cooperations, positive comity can play a more important role in international anti -monopoly cooperations in the future.
