Public Policy and Business
An oligopoly is a market structure characterized by a small number of firms that dominate the market, leading to limited competition and a high degree of market power. In this setting, each firm's decisions about pricing and output can significantly impact the other firms in the market, resulting in strategic behavior among competitors. Oligopolies often feature barriers to entry, enabling these few firms to maintain their market dominance and influence economic conditions.
