22. Coase, “The Nature of the Firm.”
23. This is a straightforward index but it does not capture, for instance, whether there are major differences in market share within this subset—that is, whether one or two firms are especially dominant. The Herfindahl-Hirschman Index, named after the economists Orris C. Herfindahl and Albert O. Hirschman, partially remedies this measurement flaw by giving extra weight to the biggest players. The US Department of Justice, for instance, uses this index to help determine whether antitrust action is warranted in a given field. For further discussion of this issue, see Hirschman, “The Paternity of an Index.”
