1.8. Factor Markets - Readings
Required Readings:
- NONE
Recommended Readings:
This is a part of our review of major production concepts from Microeconomics. You should consider looking at the following textbooks if you are rusty or want to know more about these concepts:
- Ch. 4 (Monopsony) in Dennis W Carlton and Jeffrey M PerloffModern Industrial Organization, 4th ed. (USA: Pearson, 2005).
Unfortunately, Church and Ware do not cover factor markets or monopsony power. If you have any old textbooks from ECON 206 or 306, you might look for a chapter on Factor Markets and/or Monpsony (sometimes a section of a Monopoly chapter, or part of a Factor Markets chapter.)
Much of my analysis and examples come from the textbook I use in ECON 306:
- Ch. 13 in Goolsbee, Syverson, and Levitt, 2013, Microeconomics
