There is presently a gap between the pace of technological change and the progress of organizational transformation in business. This book provides a new set of concepts linking the latest technology with our understanding of economic organizations. The author uses the principles of institutional economics to show how information technology can be put to work to transform business organizations, improving their effectiveness and the quality of working life of their members, using examples from airlines, financial markets, and nonprofit organizations.
