Methodologically, NIE has developed valuable intersections with other fields in economics, including game-theory, law and economics, public choice and constitutional political economy, industrial organization, managerial economics, and development economics. Substantively, the applications of NIE span through many disciplines, ranging from law to politics, to institutional design, to contracting and business organization. This book is a testament to the growing success of NIE and a valuable guide to its literature for both insiders and outsiders to the field.'

Thanks to the pioneering work of Ronald Coase, Douglas North and Olivier Williamson, institutions are now recognized as being a key factor in explaining differences in performance between industries, nations, and regions. The fast-growing field of new institutional economics analyzes the economics of institutions and organizations using methodologies, concepts, and analytical tools from a wide range of disciplines (including political science, anthropology, sociology, management, law, and economics). With contributions from an international team of researchers, New Institutional Economics provides theoreticians, practitioners, and advanced students in economics and social sciences with a guide to the many recent developments in the field. It explains the underlying methodologies, identifies issues and questions for future research, and shows how results apply to decision making in law, economic policy, management, regulation and institutional design.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eList of figures\u003cbr\u003e List of tables\u003cbr\u003e List of contributors\u003cbr\u003e Acknowledgments\u003cbr\u003e Foreword Oliver E.
