49 Pages Posted: 20 Apr 2011

Date Written: January 1996

Abstract

This paper first offers a historical perspective of regulation, the early steps of Colombian industry and the way it grew. The environment was not conducive to the application of legislation that attempted to regulate monopoly or oligopoly, much less to regulate economic power. A discussion of the modern private sector follows the history.
