From Coase to culture? Visible Hands Build Equilibria
Abstract This essay proposes that the classic distinction in Ronald Coase's 1937 paper ‘The nature of the firm’ ( Economica , vol. 4, pp. 386–405) between firms and markets be gracefully retired, having been duly celebrated for its field‐launching contribution to organizational e...
