The relationship between the European Convention of Human Rights and competition law through the Ships Waste Oil Collector case

Abstract: This work aims to investigate in an “immediate” and comparative way the relationship that exists between competition law of the European Union law and the European Court of Human Rights. The right to competition as a separate right does not exist in the European Convention of Human Rights. But the connection, relationship, mixing, dialogue of notions and rights protected and safeguarded between two different courts has already existed for years with various paths of thought and ideology, arriving in our days at the Ships Waste Oil Collector case which allows us once again to speak for protected rights and right to competition.
