The Great Merger Movement in American Business, 1895-1904
ISBN: 9780521357654 / Angielski / Miękka / 1988 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Between 1895 and 1904 a great wave of mergers swept through the manufacturing sector of the United States' economy. This book explores the causes of the mergers, arguing that there was nothing natural or inevitable about turn-of-the-century combinations. Despite this conclusion, the author does not accept the view that they were necessarily a threat to competition. She shows that most of these consolidations were less efficient that the new rivals that appeared almost immediately, and they quickly lost their positions of market dominance. More over, in most of those few cases where...

Insider Lending: Banks, Personal Connections, and Economic Development in Industrial New England
ISBN: 9780521566247 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 194 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Today the term "insider lending" conveys an aura of abuse and corruption, of unethical, if not illegal, behavior. In early nineteenth century New England, however, insider lending was an integral aspect of the banking system. Not only was the practice an accepted fact of economic life, but, as Naomi R. Lamoreaux argues, it enabled banks (at least in this particular historical context) to play an important role in financing economic development. As the banking system evolved over the course of the century, however, lending practices became more impersonal and professional.

From the nation's founding to the present, Americans have regarded...

Organizations, Civil Society, and the Roots of Development
ISBN: 9780226426365 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 448 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Modern developed nations are rich and politically stable in part because their citizens are free to form organizations and have access to the relevant legal resources. Yet in spite of the advantages of open access to civil organizations, it is estimated that eighty percent of people live in countries that do not allow unfettered access. Why have some countries disallow the formation of organizations as part of their economic and political system?
The contributions to Organizations, Civil Society, and the Roots of Development seek to answer this question through an exploration of... Modern developed nations are rich and politically stable in part because their citizens are free to form organizations and have access to the relevant...

Coordination and Information: Historical Perspectives on the Organization of Enterprise
ISBN: 9780226468211 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 345 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Case studies that examine how firms coordinate economic activity in the face of asymmetric information--information not equally available to all parties--are the focus of this volume.
In an ideal world, the market would be the optimal provider of coordination, but in the real world of incomplete information, some activities are better coordinated in other ways. Divided into three parts, this book addresses coordination within firms, at the borders of firms, and outside firms, providing a picture of the overall incidence and logic of economic coordination. The case studies--drawn from the... Case studies that examine how firms coordinate economic activity in the face of asymmetric information--information not equally available to all parti...

Learning by Doing in Markets, Firms, and Countries
ISBN: 9780226468341 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 356 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Learning by Doing in Markets, Firms, and Countries draws out the underlying economics in business history by focusing on learning processes and the development of competitively valuable asymmetries. The essays show that organizations, like people, learn that this process can be organized more or less effectively, which can have major implications for how competition works.
The first three essays in this volume explore techniques firms have used to both manage information to create valuable asymmetries and to otherwise suppress unwelcome competition. The next three focus on the ways... Learning by Doing in Markets, Firms, and Countries draws out the underlying economics in business history by focusing on learning processes and...
