MARKET DISTORTION
A ''market distortion'' is a specific type of market failure brought about by deliberate government regulation which prevents economic agents from freely establishing a clearing price.
Examples:
★ Prescribing a certain price (setting price caps as well as price floors) by non-market means (e.g. price regulation - cf. socialist economy)
★ Restricting the manufacture or imporation of a certain good, which thereby restricts supply.
