Summary/Abstract: Many criteria are now imposed in order to evaluate the effecti­veness of existing economic systems, and economic relations and processes. It is very important harmonization of the market economy principles underlying these criteria, on the one hand, and their implementation in practice, on the other. In this paper we will specifically deal with the market structure, as specific pre­condition for the emergence and functioning of the market eco­nomy. The theory warns us, and practice roughly confirms that it is not possible to make a clear distinction between the subjects in the market, which introduces a new concept of analyzing the market structure, and that is the market concentration. It helps to clarify the relationships of competition and market concentrati­on. However, difficulties can arise especially in countries in transi­tion such as Serbia. Despite the evident desire to regulate relations in the market and to establish equal conditions for all market participants, market structure transformation process in Serbia is particularly difficult by the privatization process that created the conditions for the emergence of monopolistic market structures.
