标题: 全套资料：企业理论及其在商业管理中的应用

今天看到了这个网页，觉得一定要上来分享一下。这是德国哥本哈根商学院的Nicolai Foss教授今年六月给博士生上课的专题网站。上面有课程所有的阅读材料全本和讲义材料。特别是其中一本Joseph Mahoney. 2005. Economic Foundations of Strategy. London: Sage.可是原价76美元的新书。对于国内经济学背景想要报考战略管理的同学，这份提纲应该非常有帮助。需要的朋友可要抓紧了，这等好事可不是经常有的。

另外，Foss教授网站上还有很多好文章，喜欢经济学的同学可以好好搜刮一下。

Purpose During the last two decades, economic theories of the firm have become increasingly influential in a number of disciplines in business administration, notably in strategic management, organization theory, corporate governance, and marketing. The aim of this course is to provide a structured introduction to the main theories of economic organization, such as agency theory, property rights theory, and transaction cost theory, emphasizing the application of these theories to particularly strategic management, organization theory, and empirical work.

Literature
Session 1: The Economic Theory of the Firm: Background.

This lecture shows how the emergence of the economic theory of the firm reflects a general change in economics towards more realistic assumptions, a greater concern with small numbers interaction, and an expansion of the set of phenomena that economists think they can legitimately deal with it (Kreps). A survey is provided of the main theories of economic organization (Foss), and agency theory is offered as an example of how economists of organization explain (Hendrikse).
