Monopolistic competition is a market structure characterized by many firms competing against each other, where each firm sells a product that is differentiated from others. This means that while there are many sellers, each one offers a slightly different product, allowing them to have some control over their pricing. In this setting, firms can make short-term profits due to product differentiation but will eventually see these profits eroded as new competitors enter the market, similar to perfect competition in the long run.
