Bob Ellickson's work is so wide-ranging, thought-provoking, and important that doing it justice here is an impossibility - so I will admit defeat on that score at the outset. Instead, I want to focus on one recurring theme that runs through much of his scholarship and that has been especially important to my own thinking about property: that scale matters. Ellickson cashes out this idea in many rich and interesting ways, but I will use three broad propositions that emerge from his work as a way of organizing my remarks. First, that the scale at which activities and events unfold should drive choices among property arrangements. Second, that the institutions for managing property should be scaled to fit the relevant action. Third, that scale should factor into our normative evaluations o...

The debates about returns to scale, costs and long-run supply spanning from 1926-1942 resulted in the articulation of the relationship between industry supply and firm costs under perfect competition and the development of U-shaped cost curves. It is argued that consistency requires constant costs but firm employment, production and factor incomes remain theoretically indeterminate. Consequently, large firms will likely undermine perfect competition.

A company's inventory metrics are often viewed as critical indicators of its supply chain performance although inventory costs are only a fraction of total supply chain costs comprised of supplier, manufacturing, transportation, and warehousing costs, as well as inventory costs. Moreover, inventories across the supply chain are dependent on acquisition and distribution decisions. We discuss how simulation and optimization models can be combined to integrate analysis of inventory and supply chain network design decisions in performing a total cost analysis. An application of the models to plans for distributing retail products to an expanding network of stores is reviewed.

Indeed, in 2006, the Solicitor General and the United States Patent and Trademark Office (PTO) represented to the Supreme Court that the Federal Circuit's test of patentability-a centerpiece of the circuit's patent jurisprudence for more than twenty years-is "misguided" and "counterproductive" and has "exact[ed] a heavy cost in the form of unwarranted extension of patent protection.... It might try to counterbalance its insularity by encouraging attorneys to cite and discuss the wealth of empirical and social science research on patent law that has been produced in recent years.18 The court could also display greater receptiveness to ideas generated by district court judges, particularly those related to the allocation of judicial authority.19 These solutions, however, would not pro...
