Abstract:The assumptions of material self-interest, bounded rationality, and negative opportunism that underlie organizational economics are deficient for many managerial purposes because they under-represent the importance of interpersonal and other nonmarket resources in human motivation. An aspiration-level assumption called betterment is introduced that extends transaction cost analysis to include exchanges involving interpersonal resources. Implications are discussed for the efficient design of organizational boundaries, organizational subunits, and employment relations. Special attention is given to co-operation as an organizational asset.
