Concentration of Production and Small-Scale Industry

Abstract

For many years now research on the concentration of industry has been conducted unilaterally in our country; with rare exceptions, statisticians and economists have persistently argued the advantages of large-scale production over small-scale production. It is incomprehensible why it is necessary to argue that which is self-evident: in itself, the process of concentration in all countries and in all branches of the national economy is evidence of the decisive role of large-scale enterprises, wherever aggregated highly productive equipment is applicable and a wide market is available.
