CONTRACTS, ENTREPRENEURS, MARKET CREATION AND JUDGEMENT: THE CONTEMPORARY MAINSTREAM THEORY OF THE FIRM IN PERSPECTIVE
综述当代主流经济学中的企业理论,简要讨论委托代理和不完全合同模型,并考察三种最新贡献:参考点方法、Spulber的企业理论以及企业家判断视角。
Abstract This survey gives an overview of the theory of the firm as it is formulated within the contemporary ‘mainstream’ of economics. Two groupings of theories are briefly discussed: principal–agent and incomplete contract models. Next, three of the most recent contributions regarding firms are considered. The reference point approach is looked at first followed by a discussion of Spulber's book The Theory of the Firm . Last, we consider the entrepreneurial judgement perspective.
