Opis

To date, the formulation of a systematic theory of markets has proved to be a difficult task and remains unfinished. Nevertheless, explanations do exist as to why, under given conditions, the basic activities of trade are organized in one particular fashion rather than another. This invaluable collection of essays brings together important papers by authors working in the tradition of the new institutional economics. The editors have provided an original introduction which presents a comprehensive overview of their selection. The volume is an essential source of reference and an excellent resource for economists, students of public policy, sociologists, political scientists and legal analysts.
