The conflict between (indefinite) wants and scarce resources at our disposal is the starting point of economic analysis.

The interaction between demand and supply as well as the resulting working of the market are introduced. Specific attention is given to the role of both the demand side (consumers) and the supply side (producers). Different market structures are discussed and analyzed (monopoly, oligopoly, monopolistic competition, perfect competition). Market failures as well as the function of government are discussed.
