There was a time when the Australian Financial Review, the Wall St
Journal, the Financial Times, the Nihon Keizai Shimbun could pretty
much take their readers for granted. They were the business papers
of record for their nations: anyone in business who turned up at a
meeting, a conference, a lunch and was not familiar with what was
in that day's paper was in danger of missing out or not being taken
seriously. The papers had to be accurate, they had to be worthy,
they had to contain information of importance to readers. But they
could get away with being boring. Today these papers must still be
all these things but they must also be compelling. They no longer
have monopolies. They must compete with business stories written
for the web, for blogs, wires, on Twitter. Business writing today,
whatever the medium, can no longer take its readers for granted, it
can no longer be dull. That in itself has made business writing a
much broader oeuvre but beyond new competition there has been a
realisation more broadly that business matters, that it is not just
something of interest to accountants and stock brokers. We live in
a capitalist society, our everyday lives are subject to the dismal
science of economics - something reinforced dramatically by the
financial crisis of 2008, which continues to roil our lives. In the
first edition of a new annual anthology showcasing the best of
Australian business writing to be published by NewSouth in November
2012, editor Andrew Cornell shows that the best business writing
has always been about more than business: it is about history,
ethics, crime, intrigue, and morality.
