This dissertation examines the relationship between market structure, welfare and average productivity. In doing so, two distinct questions are integrated into a unified framework. The first question addresses the role of concentration indicators in accessing the welfare properties of industry equilibrium. The second question focuses on the way incentives for upstream specialization decisions are shaped by the downstream market structure.
