This book is specifically aimed at addressing a gap in the study of
the evolution of corporate governance in Britain. In particular its
key theme, the relationship between corporate governance and
personal capitalism in British manufacturing in the first half of
the twentieth century, provides the means for a systematic and
critical examination of the dominant Chandlerian paradigm that the
long-running persistence of personal capitalism shaped the
governance of British manufacturing firms well into the twentieth
century and acted to erode their competitive performance. The book
helps to identify those aspects of corporate governance that have
undergone change, with some critical observations on the magnitude
of change and those aspects which have displayed characteristics of
continuity. The empirical spine of this book is set out in a series
of case studies which provide the basis for the examination of
corporate governance in Britain during the period c. 1900 to 1950.
By focusing particularly on the responses of a range of businesses
to the turbulent environment of the inter-war years, this volume
offers an insight into a much neglected, yet vital, area of
business and economic history.
