Governing online platforms: competition policy in times of platformization

Just, Natascha (2018). Governing online platforms: competition policy in times of platformization. Telecommunications Policy, 42(5):386-394.

Abstract

This paper argues that a paradigmatic change in competition policy is needed and empirically under way to cope with the challenges posed by economically strong online platforms and their big-data-based business models. Competition policy needs to move further away from its traditional price-oriented emphasis and increasingly focus on non-price competition, on attention markets and zero prices, and on big user data, which has become a new asset class in digital economies.
