论竞争法上当事人的确定

The Parties in Competition Law

竞争法案件中,当事人的确定不仅关系到明确权利、义务、责任的承担者,而且是评价市场力量的重要前提,只有在确定了当事人以后,才能进行市场力量的计算,从而评价各种限制竞争行为的后果,判明其违法性。而如何在具体竞争案件中确定当事人,是一个十分复杂的问题。本文针对竞争法的主要领域,即限制竞争协议、支配地位滥用行为以及企业合并情形下当事人的确定规则,进行深入分析,而尤以企业合并情形为重点。在英文中,各种竞争案件的当事人往往称作“undertakingsconcerned”,我们在此将其称作“所涉企业”。

It is an indispensable premise for the assessment of market power to ascertain the parties in competition law cases which are referred to as ＂undertakings concerned＂, while how to define them in practice is a complex problem. This article explore the ways of defining the parties in the main areas of competition law, namely the regulation of restrictive agreements, the abuse of dominant position as well as the control of concentration, which are waiting for attention in the competition law study.
