Title: Worlds of Production: The Action Frameworks of the Economy.
Description: Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 1997. Hardcover. Dustjacket. 384 pp.- This intellectually bold but accessible book seeks to go beyond limitations of the reigning neoclassical and institutional paradigms in explaining the organization of economic activity. It does this by construing non-economic factors such as institutions, cultures, and social practices as conventions, which coordinate economic actors by defining specific frameworks of economic action. In these conventional frameworks, the standard distinction between economic and non-economic no longer exists. The authors explore in detail four basic frameworks--or possible worlds of production--which underpin the mobilization of economic resources, the organization of production systems and factor markets, patterns of economic decision making, and forms of profitability. The case studies examine how these possible worlds act to support innovative production complexes in a variety of sectors in several countries. English text. Condition : as new.
