Information, corporate governance, and institutional diversity : competitiveness in Japan, the USA, and the transitional economies / Masahiko Aoki ; translated by Stacey Jehlik. - Oxford ; New York : Oxford University Press, 1995. - xiii, 186 p. : ill. ; 22 cm.
Includes bibliographical references and index.
This book uses comparative institutional analysis to explain differences in national economic performance. Countries have their own rules for corporate governance and they have different market arrangements; and these differences in rules and organization affect the way firms behave. Countries also tend to develop conventions of organizational architecture of firms - whether their hierarchies are functional, horizontal, or decentralized. This affects the way in which they process information, and information management is increasingly seen as being of crucial importance to a firm's performance.
