Irrelevant markets

Summary/Abstract: There is a widespread view in Polish antitrust literature that it is necessary to define the relevant market in every antitrust case. The above is in contradiction with, for example, the approach adopted in EU law. However, it is pointed out that such an obligation results in Polishl aw, in particular, from the actual wording of the Act on Competition and Consumer Protection. This article aims to defend the opposite thesis: defining relevant markets is not always necessary, and emphasis on defining them every time is even harmful and leads to the definition of “irrelevant” markets.
