Based on current research in the resource based view of the firm and organizational economics, this text develops a rigorous approach to the many important issues surrounding the scope of the firm. Beginning from the analysis of how valuable resources contribute to the competitive advantage of a single business, it progresses through the analysis of scale, scope and vertical integration within an industry, to the treatment of diversification and the management of multibusiness firms.
