Towards Achieving Economic Freedom: Enforcing The Principle Of Competition Freedom Through Suppressing Anti-competitive Practices

Authors : Khedidji Brahim . Nedjah Issam .

Abstract

The legal framework governing economic liberalization is pivotal for the foundation of economic law. Achieving economic freedom becomes feasible through the liberalization of trade and industry, coupled with the assurance of free competition. Such freedom can only be sustained through the implementation of both preventive and punitive legislation aimed at shielding it from any practices that might constrain the principle of free competition. This study endeavors to elucidate the practices in which economic operators might engage that potentially undermine free competition, and it explores the mechanisms designed to combat and deter such practices. This investigation is driven by the question: How effective are the mechanisms that legislators have enacted to safeguard the principle of free competition in realizing economic freedom?
