2024년 경제법 주요 판례 회고 = Analysis of the Economic Law Cases in 2024

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

In recent years, while the number of traditional fair trade laws has decreased, important cases in the field of distribution law have appeared. The basis of distribution law is unfair trade practices in the fair trade law, especially abuse of trading position. Therefore, the basic principles of legal interpretation are similar, but there are differences in each law that reflect the characteristics of each business type. However, if we look at the specific legal provisions, the standards for imposing fines are different, and the provisions on the subjects of application of the law are also different. If these differences accurately reflect the reality of each business type, there would be no better regulations, but the reality does not seem to be so. In addition, the economic situation is changing not only from the time of the enactment of the fair trade law but also from the time of the enactment of the distribution law. The standard of economic superiority seems to have changed a lot from the past as the Korean economy has expanded significantly. The application of the law must show suitability, and for this purpose, it is necessary to consider not only a reasonable legal inter- pretation but also a legal amendment that conforms to the reality if necessary.
