Description of the research topic:
Various new phenomena that characterize today's firms, such as outsourcing, franchising, flattening of organizational structure, virtual firms or intrapreneurship cannot be fully explained in the framework of the mainstream contractual theories of the firm which have developed by following Coase (1937). These phenomena indicate that the "nature" of the firm has to be understood in a more nuanced way. It is possible to formulate - within the theory of the firm - more specific theoretical and/or empirical questions to better explain the firm in the knowledge economy.
