Abstract

Since 1986, it seems to be obvious that the french governement, wants to protect little shops against the stringent su- permarkets'competition. The aim of this paper is to analyse the perturbations due to the entry of a supermarket on a pure competitive market composed only by little shops. This study provides a conceptual framework to deem not only the prédation but also the price effects of this entry. À paradoxal effect on prices appears. The conclusion suggests the relevant levels of the technological conditions that are necessary to yield positive effects on the social welfare.
