The Economics and Regulation of Digital Markets presents new findings and perspectives from leading international scholars on three critical areas of developing government policies. The first three contributions analyse digital markets and their regulation. Next is a discussion of the divergence of expert and public views on European democracy. The final contribution provides an analysis of the effects of firing notification procedures on wage growth. The functioning of digital markets, the state of democracy around the world, and rules that affect wages raise questions about the proper roles of government rules. This volume provides insights into these pressing and important issues.
