In economics efficiency has meant allocative efficiency since time immemorial. Allocative efficiency means that the market price is equal to the marginal cost, and that the firm is using the cost minimizing [K/L] ratio. Allocative inefficiency in the market occurs when P ≠ MC. In the firm it means that the firm is either too capital intensive or too labor intensive. Most of the attention in economics has been on market allocative inefficiency. This is because markets will be inefficient if it contains market power. However, since "time immemorial" firms have been assumed to be efficient. Market allocative inefficiency for the entire economy is between 1/10 of 1% and 1/100 of 1% of GDP. For a $16 trillion GDP this is equal to between $16,000,000,000 and $1,600,000,000. By way of comparison, each year Americans spend $7,000,000,000 on potato chips. However, inefficiency is not limited to allocative inefficiency. In 1966 Harvey Leibenstein began using the term X-(in)efficiency. The use of the X stems from the fact that when Harvey Leibenstein first wrote about it he claimed that the nature of this type of non-allocative (in)efficiency was not known, hence the X. X-inefficiency has been estimated to be in the area of three percent of the GDP. For a $16 trillion economy this is $480,000,000,000. This paper reviews some of the issues surrounding X-(in)efficiency including some raised by Oliver Williamson, as well as reviewing the empirical literature on X-efficiency in the financial sectors of the U.S. and Europe.

Traditional microeconomic theory is concerned with the allocation of scarce resources through the mechanism of prices and markets. The efficient allocation of resources by prices and markets is called allocative efficiency. In emphasizing the allocative function of prices and markets, microeconomic theory has ignored the allocation of resources within firms, and instead assumes that firms are always internally (X) efficient, cost minimizers. X-efficiency theory shows that protection from competitive pressures produces not only allocated market-inefficiency, but inefficiency within the firm. This book is the most current, in-depth, and comprehensive review of X-efficiency theory, especially as it relates to regulatory economics and policy. It provides an understanding of X-efficiency by developing the theory, exhibiting empirical evidence, and, finally, reviewing applications of the theory

"This book is a collection of specially-commissioned chapters from philosophers, economists, political and behavioral economists, cognitive and organizational psychologists, computer scientists, sociologists and permutations thereof as befits the polymathic subject of this book: Herbert Simon. The tripartite of the title, Minds, Models and Milieux, connotes the three inextricably linked areas to which Herbert Simon made the most distinguished of contributions. 'Minds' connotes Simon's abiding interest in theorizing human behavior, rationality, and decision-making; 'Models' connotes his extensive computer simulation work in the service of his interest in understanding minds, but also in the service of minds that are situated in a complex social 'Milieux'. This collection while intended to commemorate the centenary of Simon's birth simultaneously offers a timely reassessment of some of his central insights and illustrates the exponentially growing interest in Simon's work from beyond the usual disciplines and constituencies.
