Economic theorists have used the existence of facts that demonstrate a set of market failures, such as externalities, monopoly power, and public goods, to justify government intervention to correct such failures. However, a similar set of facts can also demonstrate the market’s failure to exist, meaning that the very government intervention that was implemented to correct for the alleged market failures prevents a market solution to such a failure from emerging. Before and since the publication…

With settlements turning into colonies in the majority of countries across the world, great scholars in the late 1700s wrote not only about topics like religion and evolution, but also now wrote more on topics like trade, taxes and currency. Most growing economies were faced either with the issue that trade flow was increasing faster than they could deal with, or the issue that there was little to no upsurge in productivity to accommodate the growing populations. Two of many economic…

1. Introduction The study of the internationalisation process of emerging market multinationals (EMNCs) has gained prominence in the last two decades, this is as a result of the economic growth and transformation witnessed among the emerging markets (EM) in the period. The internationalisation phenomena have resulted in a surge of interest from international business (IB) scholars (Athreye & Kapur, 2009; Hoskisson, Eden, Lau, & Wright, 2000; Hoskisson, Wright, Filatotchev, & Peng, 2013;…

paper examines the model proposed by Green and Porter, which is a model of dynamic price competition under imperfect monitoring, i.e. firms encounter the problem of detecting and deterring deviation from the agreement. Firms can only observe the market price, but do not know the actual production level of another firm. Unexpected fall in prices may account for deviation from the colussive output or bad demand shock. So firms can deter deviation only by threatening to set Cournout quantities,…

interests in America. It is not merely enough to say that capitalism has not only become our only economic system, but it is something that has become so abstract and undefinable. In today’s modern society, people no longer think about capitalism or market interactions. All they think about are the goods and services given to them by capitalism. Capitalism’s very nature is exploitative and it uses this exploitation to further seep into our lives. It is not enough to merely speculate about…

There are many aspects of American government that have shaped it into what it is today, a few of those being culture, politics, and economics.

Born in 17th century Europe, capitalism can be defined as the investment of money with the intention of profiting. After spreading across Europe, colonization forced capitalism upon other countries. Capitalism was once a fundamental…

Free market. It allows businesses to compete among themselves without restrictions. This encourages competitive pricing as well as provides companies an even playing ground to earn an honest success. In this sense, due to its nature of having no restrictions, a free market is governed almost entirely by ethics. But, without restrictions, businesses have the opportunity to participate in unethical actions that would result in a corrupt and faulty market. As evident in Ethan Watters' "The…
