Tiivistelmä: | An alternative view to the theory of the firms sees firms as organizations that represent social knowledge of learning and coordination , but their boundaries should not demarcate quantitatice shifts oof knowledge and capability of their members. Does the perception of opportunism generate the need to integrate market transactions into the firm or do boundaries of the firm lead to opportunism? Procedural rules are learned through identification and coordination and communication are facilitated across individuals and groups firm is distinct from a market because coordination, communication and learning are situated physically in locality and mentally in identity. Since identity implies a moral order and rules of exclusion, there are limitations and costs to relaying upon a firm for exchange as opposed to to the market. |
