Legacy

The University of Liège has always had a stellar for European law. Over the years, no less than five professors of the Faculty of Law have been appointed as Judges to the European Court of Justice:

  • Pierre PESCATORE,
  • René JOLIET,
  • Melchior WATHELET,
  • Franklin DEHOUSSE, and
  • Sean VAN RAEPENBUSCH.

Additionnally, the Liege Competition and Innovation Institute follows on from a long tradition of excellence in the field of competition law.

Numerous seminal studies on competition law have been published by ULiège Professors of law who are still authoritative in the field:

  • Leon DABIN,
  • Charly del MARMOL,
  • Aurelio PAPPALARDO,
  • Paul DEMARET,
  • Jean-François BELLIS,
  • Damien GERADIN.

In retrospect, those names constitute a true Liege School of Competition Law.
