Abstract: Abstract We saw in Chapter 5 how human activity can be coordinated either unconsciously, through markets, or consciously, through organizations. Organizations consciously set goals, allocate tasks to individuals, and offer rewards for task completion. So the first question is what goals should an organization set itself? Can the goals be decided arbitrarily by just any group of people? Or are there any conditions the goals must meet?
