Project Details
Abstract
The aim of the project is to translate the book into Chinese version in
which is entitled “Firms, Contracts, and Financial Structure,”written by Oliver
Hart, and published by Oxford University Press in 1995.
In the book, Hart provides a framework for thinking about firms and other
kinds of economics institutions. He points out that firms arise in situations in
which people write incomplete contracts. Therefore, allocation of power or
control is important in the whole process. In the first part of the book, he uses
the methodology of incomplete contracts which he pioneered to investigate the
boundaries of the firm. In the second part of the book, he unifies theory of the
ownership and financial structure of the firm. Incomplete contracting ideas are
applied to understand firms’financial decisions, such as the nature of equity
and debt, bankruptcy procedure, and the allocation of voting rights across a
company’s shares, etc.
The project is planning to fulfill the following requirements: 1) to collect
and study the literature related to the issues appeared in the book; 2) to finish
an introduction of the Chinese version for the book; 3) to provide the
completion of the Chinese version of the book originally written in English.
