Monopoly es un juego de mesa multijugador con temática económica. En el juego, los jugadores lanzan dos dados estándar para mover su ficha en sentido horario alrededor del tablero, comprando y comerciando propiedades y ferrocarriles y desarrollándolos con casas y hoteles. Los jugadores recolectan renta de sus oponentes y buscan llevarlos a la bancarrota. El dinero también se puede ganar o perder a través de las cartas de Chance y Community Chest y las casillas de impuestos. Los jugadores reciben un salario cada vez que pasan "Go" y pueden terminar en la cárcel, de la cual no pueden moverse hasta que hayan cumplido una de tres condiciones. Existen reglas caseras, cientos de ediciones diferentes, muchas versiones derivadas y medios relacionados.

[...] you don't want to get regulated by the government [...] So if the monopolists pretend not to have monopolies, the non-monopolists pretend to have monopolies. [...] If you are a non-monopolist, you will rhetorically describe your market as super-small [...] you are the only person in that market.”
