Abstract

Center of Indiana University, to whom I would like to express my appreciation.' For instance, in an introduction to a presenitation of French concentration ratios, Jacques Loup ("La concentration dans l'industrie francaise," E~tztdes et con joncture, XXIV (Feb. 1969) expressly notes that the United States concentration ratios are lover but does not bother to carry out any actual empirical comparisons Nwhich vould, in point of fact, show the reverse conclusion (see table 2 ).2This point was emphasized to me in cori-espondence by Peter Pashigian; for a detailed analysis of certain other critical aspects of the relationships between market size and monopoly, see his "The Effect of Market Size on Concentration,"
