This is the history of the East India Company and its enduring
legacy as a corporation, dealing in exploitation and violence. The
English East India Company was the mother of the modern
multinational. Its trading empire encircled the globe, importing
Asian luxuries such as spices, textiles and teas. But it also
conquered much of India with its private army and broke open
China's markets with opium. The Company's practices shocked its
contemporaries and still reverberate today. This expanded edition
explores how the four forces of scale, technology, finance and
regulation drove its spectacular rise and fall. This story provides
vital lessons on both the role of corporations in world history and
the steps required to make global business accountable today.
