Summary
The international software market is going through a strong concentration process that is of great concern to the competition policy authorities as well as the public. Network effects are seen as the major reason for the concentration process. Andreas Gröhn describes markets with network effects, focuses on critical points in a theoretical analysis and assesses the importance of network effects empirically. On this basis policy implications are drawn.
