We intend to clarify the<br />state of the art of empirical studies on the industrial competition. Basically, we discuss a<br />point of view that became consensus in this field about the decreasing competition in concentrated<br />industries. Then we examine the importance of the barriers to entry to establish<br />enterprise behaviour and their power to fix prices. Finally, based on the renaissance of classical<br />economics there is an overview about diversification and the role of the profit rate in a<br />capitalist economy.</p> <p><strong>JEL Classification:</strong> B25; B20; L00; L10</p>}, number={4}, journal={Brazilian Journal of Political Economy}, author={Filho, Arthur Barrionuevo}, year={1990}, month={Oct.}, pages={540-559} }
