ISBN: 9780199216512 / Angielski / Miękka / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

Economic theories have neglected to apply concepts of asset specificity to social regulations in competitive industries. This book aims to fill these voids with a company-based explanation. Its theoretical findings open a 'black box' in the literature on international political economy...

Economic Behavior and Legal Institutions: An Introductory Survey
ISBN: 9789812382580 / Angielski / Twarda / 432 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Markets would not function unless supported by a legal framework. That framework is no self-contained, exogenous structure; it has evolved in response to the demands of economic activity.

Such laws are often called forth by political ambitions to change the distribution of wealth, channeled through the political process.
Thus economic life and law are strongly interrelated. There is neither a pure economic system unaffected by law, nor a legal system possible to understand without...

How do you reconcile a liberal system of international trade in services with national governments' desire to protect social values through service regulation? How much control are the WTO members willing to transfer to the...
