Abstract

The paper presents in contribution the development of theories and opinions about competition, competitiveness and antimonopoly policy. These topics are treated starting from the oldest time, e.g. from Aristotle, through antique world, early capitalism, A. Smith and the classical Ricardian tradition. She further discusses the ruinous competition and the origin of the first framework of anti-trust legislation at the break of 19th and 20th centuries, Marx's interpretation of concentration tendencies of capitalist development and his followers, the origin of imperfect competition, ordoliberalism and the system of neoliberal politics and at last the dynamic theory of competition - concept of workable competition as well as theory of "balancing force" and the concept of so-called mature corporations.
