Book Dynamics of Industry Growth

Download or read book Dynamics of Industry Growth written by Jati Sengupta and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-05-02 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Economic growth of a country depends on its industries. The focus of modern growth theory is basically macroeconomics, although neoclassical models use competitive markets and the optimization behavior of households and firms in general equilibrium framework. The emphasis here is on industry growth, where the microfoundations of industry are analyzed in terms of economic efficiency. The various linkages which link firm growth with the industry growth are discerned here under various market structures both competitive and monopolistic. The role of information in facilitating market signals and allowing the adoption of new processes has been especially emphasized in this volume. Many issues of market failure and the suboptimality of competitive equilibria are due to incomplete and imperfect information structures and we need a comprehensive theory of information structures underlying the process of industry growth and its dynamics. This book will be of interest to economists studying economic and industry growth and innovation.

Book New Developments in the Analysis of Market Structure

Download or read book New Developments in the Analysis of Market Structure written by International Economic Association and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 1986 with total page 588 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These contributions discuss a number of important developments over the past decade in a newly established and important field of economics that have led to notable changes in views on governmental competition policies. They focus on the nature and role of competition and other determinants of market structures, such as numbers of firms and barriers to entry; other factors which determine the effective degree of competition in the market; the influence of major firms (especially when these pursue objectives other than profit maximization); and decentralization and coordination under control relationships other than markets and hierarchies.ContributorsJoseph E.

Book Internal Firm Structure  External Market Condition and Competitive Dynamics

Download or read book Internal Firm Structure External Market Condition and Competitive Dynamics written by Jing Chen and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 19 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To investigate competitive dynamics of the dominant-fringe firm competition, this paper considers a new analytical theory of production and competition, which incorporate the relationships among fixed costs, variable costs, market uncertainty, and product value. We particularly examine the role of the production cost in the dynamic dominant-fringe firm relationship.The new approach provides a clear understanding of how market competition is related to the firm structure. In particular, our results indicate that market entry and profit opportunities of firms are seriously constrained by their own cost structures and external market environment.

Book Strategy As Action

Download or read book Strategy As Action written by Curtis M. Grimm and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2005-08-25 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Strategy as Action presents an action plan for how firms can build, improve, and defend their competitive advantage at every stage of their life cycle. For start-up firms entering a market, it provides a model for exploiting competitive uncertainty and blind spots; for growth firms who have established some market advantages, it provides an action plan for exploiting relative resources; for mature firms, it explains how to exploit market position; finally, for firms that have no decisive resource advantage, it provides an action plan based on firm co-operative reactions.

Book The Structure of American Industry

Download or read book The Structure of American Industry written by James W. Brock and published by Waveland Press. This book was released on 2015-07-28 with total page 399 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The major American industries—agriculture, petroleum, electricity, banking, telecommunications, movies, college sports, airlines, health care, and the beer, cigarette, and automotive industries—intersect our lives every day. Studying these industries raises a number of economic questions: How are the individual industries organized and structured? What is their history? What are the dominant organizations in each field, and what share of their market do they represent? What is the nature of competition in these fields, and how effectively does it govern economic decision making? The nature of these industries also raises a host of public policy challenges: What significant policy issues do they pose, what options are available for addressing them, and what role can and should the government play? Unlike other books that offer economic treatments focused on theoretical expositions and analyses, the thirteenth edition addresses all these questions in a manner that treats each industry in a comprehensive, holistic way. Brock’s approach focuses on everyday experience, enhancing readers’ understanding through examples that emphasize incident and detail. Each chapter, written by an expert in the field, has been updated or rewritten for this edition. A new chapter on the movie industry has been added as well. This outstanding overview of American industry offers the reader a live laboratory of clinical examination and comparative analysis.

Book Modern Evolutionary Economics

Download or read book Modern Evolutionary Economics written by Richard R. Nelson and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2018-05-03 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Evolutionary economics sees the economy as always in motion with change being driven largely by continuing innovation. This approach to economics, heavily influenced by the work of Joseph Schumpeter, saw a revival as an alternative way of thinking about economic advancement as a result of Richard Nelson and Sidney Winter's seminal book, An Evolutionary Theory of Economic Change, first published in 1982. In this long-awaited follow-up, Nelson is joined by leading figures in the field of evolutionary economics, reviewing in detail how this perspective has been manifest in various areas of economic inquiry where evolutionary economists have been active. Providing the perfect overview for interested economists and social scientists, readers will learn how in each of the diverse fields featured, evolutionary economics has enabled an improved understanding of how and why economic progress occurs.

Book Handbook on the Economics of Leisure

Download or read book Handbook on the Economics of Leisure written by Samuel Cameron and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2011-01-01 with total page 577 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This interdisciplinary Handbook combines both mainstream and heterodox economics to assess the nature, scope and importance of leisure activities. Surprisingly, the field of leisure economics is not, thus far, a particularly integrated or coherent one. In this Handbook a wide ranging body of international scholars get to grips with the core issues, taking in the traditional income/leisure choice model of textbook microeconomics and Becker's allocation of time model along the way. They expertly apply economics to some usually neglected topics, such as boredom and sleeping, work–life balance, dating, tourism, health and fitness, sport, video games, social networking, music festivals and sex. Contributions from further afield by Veblen, Sctivosky and Bourdieu also feature prominently. Applying a mix of both theoretical and empirical data, undergraduate students in modules on sport/leisure economics as well as sport/leisure management will find this important resource invaluable.
