Individuals[edit]

barriers to entry may be for individuals as well for an organisation ........... for an individual

like while establishing as entrepenuer in the world market.....barrier or the hindrance may be the job license

I think the individual entrepreneur is covered, since as an entrepreneur, they're a business themself. Cretog8 (talk) 19:17, 4 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Globalization is not a barrier to entry. It can always be folded into one of the others, usually economies of scale. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.104.123.2 (talk) 04:09, 29 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Stigler[edit]

I think there should be a section devoted to the neo-classical definition of a entry barrier defined by George Stigler: a barrier that cannot be overcome by a firm. His definition would state that reputation, fixed costs, etc, could all be matched with money from investors or a bank if firms are earning above average profits in an industry. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.230.201.58 (talk) 04:03, 26 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Classification and examples[edit]

it would not be bad to give a link on the Michael Porter's classification: in which exact work it may be found? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.175.226.112 (talk) 15:29, 5 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Dr. Dixon's comment on this article[edit]

Dr. Dixon has reviewed this Wikipedia page, and provided us with the following comments to improve its quality:

This paper looks at barriers to entry from the perspective of antitrust. It does not include many citations of key works at all. It looks a little like a summary of a text book. For the non-specialist, it does include clearly expressed ideas that are basically correct. I think that it needs to have more of an Industrial organisation approach, with references and summaries of some of the key economic ideas. I am not an expert in this area, but John Sutton's book on Sunk Costs would be a useful place to start.

We hope Wikipedians on this talk page can take advantage of these comments and improve the quality of the article accordingly.
