Bureaucratic limits of firm size: Academic summary [PDF]

open access: yes
The research tests Oliver Williamson’s proposition that transaction cost economics can explain the limits of firm size. Williamson suggests that diseconomies of scale are manifested through four interrelated factors: atmospheric consequences due to ...
