The Renewal of Distribution Law

Distribution law has long served as a testing ground for innovation in contract law, competition law, and other legal disciplines, notably through the concept of contractual solidarity, the Doubin Act of 1989, and the application of antitrust law. 

The question now arises as to whether this catalytic role will endure in the face of new practices (online distribution, direct-to-consumer channels, partnerships) and emerging legal issues (digital law, compliance, environmental law, and agri-food law). 

These two days are therefore intended to assess the legacy of distribution law and examine its future along two lines: first, by revisiting its connections to traditional disciplines, and second, by exploring its interactions with emerging areas of law.

Under the scientific direction of:

• Jean-Louis Respaud, Associate Professor (HDR), University of Montpellier;
• Mélanie Cesnut-Puore, J.D., University of Montpellier.
