Chapter Chapter 21 in New Perspectives on Industrial Organization, 2012, pp 647-667 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract In this chapter we use case studies to identify patterns of behavior that highlight what we have learned from studying industrial organization. We begin with an investigation of three US industries: brewing, cigarettes, and college sports. Rather than provide a comprehensive study of them, we focus on the most important forces that have shaped each industry and/or have influenced public policy. This will allow us to show how industrial organization theory is relevant and can help us understand reality.
