Advancing Socio-Economics

An Institutionalist Perspective

Herausgeber: Hollingsworth, Rogers J.; Hollingsworth, Ellen Jane; Müller, Karl H.

Beschreibung

This landmark volume takes a first step towards imposing order on the increasingly diverse field of socio-economics by embedding the various disciplines and sub-disciplines in a common core. The distinguished contributors in this volume show how institutions, governance arrangements, societal sectors, organizations, individual actors, and innovativeness are intertwined and, ultimately, how individuals and firms have a high degree of autonomy.
