Transaction Cost Economics and Beyond: Toward a New Economics of the Firm
ISBN: 9780415071567 / Angielski / Miękka / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In recent years transaction costs economics have come to dominate the discussion of the nature and organization of firms. In Transaction Costs Economics and Beyond Michael Driscoll offers a critical exploration of transaction costs. He argues that whilst they have much to offer they are still an inadequate basis for a general theory of the firm.

Neo-Industrial Organising: Renewal by Action and Knowledge Formation in a Project-intensive Economy
ISBN: 9780415203340 / Angielski / Twarda / 254 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Much discussion among researchers and academics has focused on the ongoing transition to a new economy and to a new society. Popular terms to describe this transition have been post-industrial society, information society and late capitalism. Yet, perhaps the most profound changes have concerned the way in which economic activities are organised in industry as well as elsewhere. This book explores an emerging area in management and organisation studies, namely the trend towards a projectization of the economy as a whole and the inter- and intra-organisational relations of renewal projects.
