| spelling | oai:open.uct.ac.za:11427/4667 The criminalisation of cartel conduct in South Africa and the United Kingdom Merdian, Markus Kelly, Luke Davis, Dennis Commercial Law Includes bibliographical references. Preventing cartels from forming or detecting and punishing existing cartels should therefore be an important task in every country. This paper shows how South Africa and the United Kingdom deal with this task by introducing criminal sanctions into their competition law for individuals engaging in cartel conduct. As the criminal law is the ultima ratio of a constitutional state, its introduction into competition law needs some justification. In the context of competition law, criminal law is not designed to punish the offender retrospectively but to deter people from cartel conduct according to the utilitarian approach. 2014-07-30T18:16:08Z 2014-07-30T18:16:08Z 2013 Master Thesis Masters LLM http://hdl.handle.net/11427/4667 eng application/pdf Department of Commercial Law Faculty of Law University of Cape Town |
