""The Problem of Monopoly"" is a book written by John Bates Clark in 1904, which explores the issue of monopolies and their potential dangers. The author argues that monopolies, which are companies or individuals that control a particular market, can lead to higher prices, lower quality products, and decreased competition. Clark suggests that monopolies are a serious threat to the economy and society as a whole, and that it is important to find ways to prevent or mitigate their impact.The book provides a detailed analysis of the history of monopolies, examining their origins and development over time. Clark also discusses the various types of monopolies, such as natural monopolies (where a single firm can produce goods or services at a lower cost than multiple firms) and artificial monopolies (where a firm uses its market power to exclude competitors).Clark proposes several solutions to the problem of monopolies, including government regulation and antitrust laws. He also suggests that competition is the natural way to avert monopolies, and that it is important to encourage competition in all industries.Overall, ""The Problem of Monopoly"" is a thought-provoking and insightful book that provides a detailed analysis of the dangers of monopolies and the potential solutions to this problem. It is a must-read for anyone interested in economics, business, or public policy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

This little work gives permanent form to a coarse of leetnres recently delivered in Cooper Union, New York. They were given in an off-band way and stenographically reported; and they are now published with a minim Tun of revision. The considerate reader will, as I hope, take the book for what it is, in view of the manner of its preparation and its general purpose. That purpose is merely to apply to important problems economic principles which have recently become known. The indostrial system which developed under a regime of freedom and competition has become perverted by the presence of monopoly; and the thing to be accomplished is not to revolutionize the system by the method of state socialism, nor yet to cause it to reverse its natural development by resolving the great corporations which now dominate it into their constituent elements, as crude antitrust legislation would try to do, but rather to retain the corporations for their el Bcienoy while taking from them their power of oppression. Nature has shown us how to accomplish this, by revealing forces which now partly accomplish it, though without some action by the state they do their work imperfectly.
