| Lernziele | Why do firms exist? Why are firms organized the way they are? Traditional economic models leave little room for firms or other organizations as they focus on market exchange between individuals. This course will introduce students to microeconomic models that try to explain the existence and structure of firms as we observe them in the real world. Economics brings a rigorous approach that is grounded in theory. The course will provide a basic understanding of economic approaches to modeling and understanding aspects of firms, their structure, the behavior they create, and how they differ from market interaction. About half of the course will be based on the standard textbook by Milgrom and Roberts, the other half will consist of influential articles on the economics of organizations, by authors such as Coase, Williamson, Hart, and Tirole. |
| Literatur | The readings will consist of both scholarly research articles and chapters from the textbook, Economics, Organization and Management, by Paul Milgrom and John Roberts (1992, Prentice Hall). Both kinds of readings will be made available online. |
