Opis

Our lives are shaped to an enormous extent, and often in unperceived ways, by large multinational corporations. How are the growth, power, and significance of these big businesses to be explained and understood? Focusing on issues of ownership, control, and class formation, Corporate Business and Capitalist Classes explores the implications of these changes in the nature of big business

Recenzje

To date, this book represents the most comprehensive coverage of the variations of corporate governance. John Scott has done us a service in bringing together the data on ownership patterns, banking interlocks, size, network density, and many more features of advanced industrialized countries. And on top of this, he adds in the latest studies on Latin America, central and eastern Europe, and Asia. I have found myself running to this book in its manuscript form. It will serve as one of the most important sources in comparative institutional work.
