Zusammenfassung:	The HHI concept has been part of the merger guidelines in US American and European antitrust legislation. Criticism around the official application of the HHI has been rising recently, claiming that the HHI is an outdated tool, incapable of delivering probative value in antitrust proceedings. This thesis compares US American and European merger guidelines and assesses the actual application practices of these guidelines in official merger reviews. European cases are discussed in detail. In the second part of this thesis the option of using the HHI in the private sector to vet internationalizing opportunities are discussed.
