The aim of this paper is to critically analyze the manner of harmonizing private enforcement in the EU. The paper examines the legal rules and, more importantly, the actual enforcement practice of collective consumer actions in EU Member States situated in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE). Collective actions are the key method of getting compensation for consumers who have suffered harm as a result of an anti-competitive practice. Consumer compensation has always been the core justification for the European Commission’s policy of encouraging private enforcement of competition law. In those cases where collective redress is not available to consumers, or consumers cannot apply existing rules or are unwilling to do so, then both their right to an effective remedy and the public policy goal of private enforcement remain futile. Analyzing collective compensatory actions in CEE countries (CEECs) places the harmonization process in a broader governance framework, created during their EU accession, characterized by top-down law-making and strong EU conditionality. Analyzing collective consumer actions through this ‘Europeanization’ process, and the phenomenon of vertical legal transplants, raises major questions about the effectiveness of legal transplants vis-à-vis homegrown domestic law-making processes. It also poses the question how such legal rules may depend and interact with market, constitutional and institutional reforms.

Creative collective actions can have the potential of true performative utterances opening windows of opportunities for new realities to emerge, for new possible worlds to be created G can be a performative, dialogic act, and a transformative, revolutionary one as well. Collective artistic creations can break the isolation that the capitalistic patriarchal sys- tem imposes on us, helping us connect with one another, giving us hope.

Niemcy są, oprócz m.in. Anglii i Holandii, jednym z niewielu krajów w Unii Europejskiej, w których praktyczne znaczenie private enforcement stale rośnie. Przejawem tej tendencji jest wzrastająca liczba postępowań sądowych w sprawach typu zarówno follow-on, jak i stand alone. Celem niniejszego opracowania jest zaprezentowanie najnowszego dorobku orzeczniczego sądów niemieckich w sprawach dotyczących prywatnoprawnego wdrażania reguł konkurencji ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem alternatywnych modeli grupowego dochodzenia roszczeń. Omówione zostaną również zmiany wynikające z konieczności implementacji Dyrektywy 2014/104.

Alongside the United Kingdom and the Netherlands, Germany is among the EU Member States where private enforcement is becoming increasingly important in practice. This tendency shows clearly in the growing number of legal proceedings initiated by plaintiffs in either follow-on or stand-alone cases. The goal of this paper is to present the most recent developments in German jurisprudence concerning private enforcement of competition law. Particular emphasis is paid to alternative models of collective enforcement. The paper also covers key changes introduced into the German legal system upon the implementation of Directive 2014/104.
