What Can Corporate Demography and Economics Contribute to Each Other
نویسنده
چکیده
The emerging field of corporate demography views corporations and industries in a similar way to human or animal individuals and groups. In spite of a surprisingly large overlap of subject matter with economics, corporate demography is not well-known by, nor easily accessible to economists. An outstanding recent book, The Demography of Corporations and Industries, by Glenn R. Carroll and Michael T. Hannan (2000) should change that. This review essay examines what economists, particularly industrial organization specialists, and corporate demographers can learn from each other. The two very different views of competition get particular attention.
