Richard N. Langlois
Изд-во: Routledge, 2007, cерия "The Graz Schumpeter Lectures", 144 с.
Co-winner of the 2006 Schumpeter Prize of the International Joseph A. Schumpeter
Society.
This book explains the shift of the organizational landscape away from vertically
integrated firms and towards more specialized entities connected by markets and networks.
In doing so, it places in a larger theoretical framework the work of Joseph Schumpeter
and Alfred Chandler, two of the twentieth century's most important analysts of the
modern corporation.
Weaving together business history, economic theory and the history of ideas, Langlois
- who won the Newcomen Award in 1992 - sorts through the competing understanding
of the rise and (relative) eclipse of the multi-unit enterprise. Rather than rejecting
the accounts of Schumpeter and Chandler, he offers his own nuanced and historically
grounded account of the rise and success of the corporation and its subsequent unbundling.
Topical and timely, Dynamics of Industrial Capitalism is a useful resource for postgraduates
and academics interested in the economics of organization, business history, economic
sociology, and the history of economic thought, as well as to the general reader
interested in the place of the corporation in the new economy.

Lectures on Economic Growth [книги]

Robert E. Lucas
Chicago: Harvard University Press, 2002
In this book the Nobel Prize-winning economist Robert Lucas collects his writings
on economic growth, from his seminal "On the Mechanics of Economic Development" to
his previously unpublished 1997 Kuznets Lectures.
The chapters progress from a general theory of how growth could be sustained and
why growth rates might differ in different countries, to a model of exceptional growth
in certain countries in the twentieth century, to an account of the take-off of growth
in the Industrial Revolution, and finally to a prediction about patterns of growth
in this new century. The framework in all the chapters is a model with accumulation
of both physical and human capital, with emphasis on the external benefits of human
capital through diffusion of new knowledge or on-the-job learning, often stimulated
by trade. The Kuznets Lectures consider the interaction of human capital growth and
the demographic transition in the early stages of industrialization. In the final
chapter, Lucas uses a diffusion model to illustrate the possibility that the vast
intersociety income inequality created in the course of the Industrial Revolution
may have already reached its peak, and that income differences will decline in this
century.
