Toward an Organizational Economics of Heterogeneous Capabilities

International Journal of the Economics of Business, 2014, vol. 21, issue 1, 15-19

Abstract: The notion of "capability" has long been influential in management research as an approach to address firm-level heterogeneity and heterogeneity in competitive outcomes. I discuss how recent advances in economics may allow for a more rigorous understanding and measurement of capability that take organizational practices into account. However, economists may also learn from work on capabilities in management research.
