From a twin perspective, legal and economic, this study analyzes Mexican economic competition (antitrust) law. United States and European theory and practice are employed as important sources of guidance and knowledge on the topic.

Review by Horacio A. Grigera Naón
Arbitration, a mechanism increasingly preferred to solve disputes in different fields, has conquered yet another field: sports.
This work —the first in the world in Spanish— analyzes the Court of Arbitration for Sport (Tribunal Arbitral du Sport) and the transnational law that it has engendered; it is a specialized organ used worldwide in the resolution of all kinds of sports disputes, including the Olympics.
This tome analyzes the relations between arbitration and the judicial branch. Its prupose is identifying issues that have obstacled what should otherwise be a mutually enforcing and fluid relationship.
At the outset, the salient characteristis of arbitration are canvassed, followed by the subjects that have, from the Mexican perspective, proven difficult.
The book is aimed to one end: dissipating doubts and briding differences between the arbitration and the litigation fields.
Esta obra, donde se aborda la función del Estado de Derecho y se plantea el escenario actual de su crisis, constituye una fuente de importantes consideraciones y propuestas para entender y propiciar los efectos recíprocos entre el Derecho y la Economía. Es también un mosaico de escenarios que describen los efectos de nuestras tradiciones jurídicas en cuanto a su impacto en la economía
This essay performs an analysis of the legal regime of arbitrators. The purpose is to shed light into the diverse facets of this (increasingly used) legal institution. In doing so, controversial topics are addressed and positions adopted as to the same.
As in any other economic area, international arbitration —commercial and investment— is an echo chamber within every evolutionary market. In the case of the energy sector (hydrocarbons + electricity), given its high technicity and regulatory regime, as well as its capital-intensiveness, more than 40% of the investment arbitration carried out at the World Bank's ICSID involve energy and infrastructure.
This book can be divided in two general parts: the industrial context and themed perspectives. The reader —whether lawyer, arbitrator, investor or student— can find profound and practical insights into the world of energy arbitration.
