Abstract
Models of market structure, borrowed from industrial organization economists, are employed to analyze the relationship between social organization and economic conditions in a Ghanaian marketing system. Comparative analysis of vegetable, fish, and yam marketing identifies three distinct modes of social organization—pure competition, ethnic monopolization, and associational monopolization — and explains differences in social patterns in terms of underlying supply and distribution structures.
