Hey guys
Going to graduate in August with a double major in International Affairs and Economics. Anyway, as part of the criteria for graduating with the Economics degree, I have to do a research paper. The topic I've chose is Monopolies.
What I could use some help on is finding some good examples where the free market effectively swept away Monopolies. One I'm using is Blockbuster and how they basically controlled the video rental market, and the Netflix and Redbox came in and now Blockbuster is teetering on bankruptcy.
Another I'm using is GameStop. Even though they've bought out practically ever used game chain, big box stores are getting in on the used games business, not to mention Craigslist, Amazon, and other websites.
This section is probably going to be around 15 pages, not including any graphs or other visual aids, so some other examples would be nice.
Thanks
