Oligopoly
- The first unit of this lesson, A Few Firms, begins this lesson with a look at the nature of oligopoly and how it is related to other market structures.
- In the second unit, Structure, we see how markets with a small number of large firms are structured.
- The third unit, Behavior, then looks at some of activities undertaken by oligopoly that are not seen in other market structures.
- In the fourth unit, Some Graphs, we use a few graphs to examine different ways that oligopoly firms interact in the production of output.
- The fifth and final unit, Taking Stock, then closes this lesson by considering the good and the bad of oligopoly and why it is often prone to government scrutiny.
