چکیده
___________________________ Author’s Note (November, 2014): I was wary of revisiting an essay that was both informal and dated but found it less horrible than I had feared—perhaps because I have been stuck in a rut for 15 years!

For an update on Section 1 (i.e., economic models of internal organization), see 11 pages from Gibbons and Roberts (2015) or 1233 pages from Gibbons and Roberts (eds., 2013).
