Market Structure, Entry, and Performance in Korea

The Review of Economics and Statistics 1990 72(3), 455
This paper applies a recursive model of structure-entry-performance with structural feedbacks to sixty-two Korean manufacturing industries for 1976-81. The results strongly support the market power hypothesis. The results also indicate that, despite active government intervention, the invisible hand is working: structure is evolving as expected with high profits leading to entry and consequently lower profits. However, there is little support for limit pricing hypotheses in this explosively growing economy.
