Features: This book utilizes the logic of institutional analysis to combine New Institutional Economics and Marxist Economics, studying the laws of corporate institutional change. Building on this foundation, it establishes a model of corporate institutional change and uses this model to empirically test the laws of corporate institutional change. Through empirical examination, it concludes that the comprehensive analytical framework of corporate institutions proposed in this book can not only explain the history of corporate institutional formation and evolution but also make relatively good predictions about the present and future of corporate institutions. Through the theoretical discussions and empirical examinations above, this book attempts to answer several important questions that continue to perplex the field of economics: Why do firms exist? Why do they change from one institutional form to another? Where is the effective boundary of firms? At the same time, it attempts to explain the key factors behind corporate institutional change. This book utilizes the logic of institutional analysis to combine New Institutional Economics and Marxist Economics, studying the laws of corporate institutional change.
