Research[edit]
Walmart and big box retail[edit]
Carden has researched the economics of big-box retailers, particularly Walmart, and their effect on the retail industry.[10] Based on his research, he has argued that the retail innovations pioneered by Walmart have been highly beneficial to consumers and that the debate over banning Walmart is an instance of the broader debate over freedom versus interventionism.[11][12][13][14]
Carden's academic research was cited by University of Chicago Law School assistant professor Todd Henderson in his paper The Nanny Corporation and the Market for Paternalism.[15] Carden's work has also been cited in a number of books mentioning Walmart, including The Routledge Handbook of Major Events in Economic History, The American Way of Eating: Undercover at Walmart, Applebee's, Farm Fields and the Dinner Table, and Rediscovering Fire: Basic Economic Lessons from the Soviet Experiment.[16] Carden was the consultant for Katherine Krieg's book Sam Walton: Founder of the Walmart Empire about Sam Walton, the founder of Walmart.[17] Carden's popular writings, that build on his research, have been cited by others such as Bruce Edward Walker for the Mackinac Center for Public Policy[18] and in an article about the opening of a Walmart store in North Plainfield.[19]
