Business groups - large, diversified, often family-controlled
organizations with pyramidal ownership structure, such as the
Japanese zaibatsu, the Korean chaebol and the grupos economicos in
Latin America - have played a significant role in national economic
growth, especially in emerging economies. Earlier variants can also
be found in the trading companies, often set up in Britain, which
operated in Asia, Africa, and Latin America.
Business groups are often criticized as premodern forms of economic
organization, and occasionally as symptomatic of corrupt 'crony
capitalism', but many have shown remarkable resilience, navigating
and adjusting to economic and political turbulence, international
competition, and technological change.
This Handbook provides a comprehensive analysis of business groups
around the world. It examines the adaptive and competitive
capabilities of business groups, and their evolutionary dynamics.
16 individual country chapters deal with business groups from Asia
to Africa, the Middle East to Latin America, while overarching
chapters consider the historical and theoretical context of
business groups. With contributions from leading experts, The
Oxford Handbook of business groups provides a comprehensive,
empirically and theoretically rich guide for scholars and
policy-makers.
