Perfect markets achieve efficiency: maximizing total surplus generated. But real markets are imperfect. In this course we will explore a set of market imperfections to understand why they fail and to explore possible remedies including as antitrust policy, regulation, government intervention. Examples are taken from everyday life, from goods and services that we all purchase and use. We will apply the theory to current events and policy debates through weekly exercises. These will empower you to be an educated, critical thinker who can understand, analyze and evaluate market outcomes.

Rebecca is knowledgeable and explains very clearly. Great teacher and great course. I’d love another course and more numerical exercises if possible. Great course, thanks!!
I followed on to this course after completing Part I. It is a very well-designed succinct course.
Excellent course by Prof. Stein. One of the best, I have seen. Thanks for such a brilliant course.
The course material is clear and easy to follow, and the questions are just tricky enough to be interesting without breaking my brain.
