Abstract
One of the most well-known theories on market functioning according to the firm’s perspective is that of transaction costs analysis (TCA), proposed in its early versions by Coaseand then by Williamson, who formulated the most relevant statements about this theory. The TCA approach supported the academic literature in explaining the criteria of organizational forms and strategic choices, among which are diversification, vertical integration, internationalization, and various forms of cooperation and interaction among firms. The papers collected in this issue of The International Journal of Economic Behavior (IJEB) provide different perspectives on interactions in which individual and organizations are involved, responding to influencing factors whose knowledge is still limited.
