Modern economists take pride in the methodological individualism of their theories, the reduction of all social phenomena to the interrelated actions of individual men and women and the rejection of explanations based on "social forces" beyond the actions of individuals. As a result, they have often struggled to understand the nature, origin, and operation of groups and organizations as such, even those engaged in the production and distribution of goods, a central activity in every economic system. This course considers several different ways that economists have tried to describe and account for the creation of business firms, the relation of these organizations to individuals and the state, the historical development of large-scale manufacturing organizations since 1870, and the rise and role of multinational firms in the last 50 years. |
