**Organization Theory: A Libertarian Perspective** is a
[book](List_of_Libertarian_Socialist_Books "wikilink") written by [Kevin
Carson](Kevin_Carson "wikilink") which explores the various concepts
associated with organizations (such as data, information, efficiency,
size, distribution, innovation, firm behaviour, costs, hierarchy, law,
regulations and management) from a [libertarian
socialist](Libertarian_Socialism "wikilink") perspective. The book also
outlines how a hypothetical [mutualist](Mutualism "wikilink") economy
would alter how the distribution data and efficiency would change within
firms.
