Course Description:

Economics of Organizations: Industrial organization is the branch of economics that studies the production and sale of economic goods. It is the study of the structure of firms and markets and of their interactions. Which many IO classes focus largely on the economic analysis of antitrust laws, this class will cover a much broader range of topics. The course is divided into three main parts. The first part covers “Competition and Monopoly.” The second, “The Economics of Special Markets,” deals with the economics of markets that are unusual in interesting ways. The final section, “Comparative Systems,” examines the larger environment within which companies operate and its ramifications for firm and government behavior.”
