Summary

We briefly discuss the rationale and the premises for the theoretical model of the book and how does our theoretical model relate to the existing and related literature. The model describes an economy with an oligopolistic industrial sector and our purpose is to analyze the interactions between the market structure and the macroeconomy – in particular, how does the equilibrium among the oligopolistic firms impact the macroeconomy and how does the macroeconomy impact back on the equilibrium among the oligopolistic firms? We set the premises of the whole work, exploring the theoretical pillars of the relationships between the industrial structure and the macroeconomy.
