Abstract
This article aims to analyse an important enforcement mechanism for antitrust policy around the world, essential key on deterring
competition illicit, but still little explored by Brazilian praxis: the antitrust class action for damages. To study the topic on a national perspective, we propose to observe the experience and directions taken by antitrust policies in other countries, in order to demonstrate the importance of private class actions in enforcing antitrust law and deterring economic illicit. In conclusion, we aim to compare the existing Brazilian procedural mechanisms for solving collective damage redress and to analyse its efficiency in enforcing antitrust policy in Brazil.
