This Special Issue collects all contributions available in the e-Competitions database relating to State aid and taxation. This topic has been at the source of many a heated debate. When reviewing the existing European Commission (‘Commission’) decisional practice and the case-law of the European Courts, it is clear that the final outcome of an investigation started by the Commission is difficult to predict, even though the key concepts for State aid and taxation in the meantime appear to be clearly defined.

The Antitrust Writing Awards must be congratulated for its initiative of promoting the exchange of knowledge and research in competition policy. It was an unparalleled opportunity to be a member of the Board and present the Best Soft Law category. I feel honored and I commend Concurrences for organizing such an important endeavor.
