Both the classic and key contemporary papers are included hence The Theory of the Firm gathers together in one volume the major key thinking within the literature.The main topics covered are the scope and boundaries of the firm, international organization and information costs, vertical integration, growth competence and flexibility, the employment relation, inter-firm collaboration and networking. A substantial analytical introduction by Mark Casson provides a state-of-the-art review of current thinking in the area.
