It was recognized in the late 1970s that the over-centralization of production presented an obstacle to market reforms. But this realization was not followed by definite actions. The article shows in the manufacturing industry that the pattern of production by different types of market (pure competition, oligopoly, monopoly) did not change much between 1980 and 1988. With imports included, monopolization was indeed found to be somewhat decreasing. Privatization and the spreading of enterprises of joint ownership were not sufficient, since it was in the interests of the enterprises functioning in new forms to maintain the market positions advantageous for them.
