Cover Understanding the Blockchain Economy
Understanding the Blockchain Economy
An Introduction to Institutional Cryptoeconomics
Chris Berg, Sinclair Davidson, and Jason Potts
Blockchains are the distributed ledger technology that powers Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. But blockchains can be used for more than the transfer of tokens – they are a significant new economic infrastructure. This book offers the first scholarly analysis of the economic nature of blockchains and the shape of the blockchain economy. By applying the institutional economics of Ronald Coase and Oliver Williamson, this book shows how blockchains are poised to reshape the nature of firms, governments, markets, and civil society.

Cover The Political Economy of Non-Territorial Exit
The Political Economy of Non-Territorial Exit
Cryptosecession
Trent J. MacDonald
Territorial political organisation forms the backbone of western liberal democracies. However, political economists are increasingly aware of how this form of government neglects the preferences of citizens, resulting in dramatic conflicts. The Political Economy of Non-Territorial Exit explores the theoretical possibility of ‘unbundling’ government functions and decentralising territorial governance.
