Cíle předmětu
During the lectures students become aguainted with unified methodology for rigorous analysis of market structures, strategic conflict and industrial development. The course aims to help studets to describe, interpret and predict the competitive behavior of a firm and its business outcomes. In addition, the course also considers tools for normative analysis of the markets’ social efficiency. Respectively, some of the topics include possible competition policy implications relating to promotion of competition through market regulation and anti-trust actions. In order to pass the course successfully, students should develop ability to identify the key characteristics of a particular market situation, to relate these to one of the main standard models studied in class and to apply that model in finding the correct market equilibrium solution according to the theory.
