This collection of fresh, incisive scholarship, by some of the
leading business historians, critically examines the nature of
economic recovery in Britain in recent years. Covering the key
issues for business history in this period, the book confronts the
traditional literature on conclusions of relative decline, and
monocausal, simplistic explanations. It provides an impressive
range of studies forming a platform for a new debate on the nature
of British business in the 20th century.
Themes include productivity, management, research and development,
marketing, regional clusters and networks, industrial policy, the
use of technology, and gender. Sector studies include newer,
post-war hopefuls and successes including:
* aerospace,
* IT,
* retail,
* banking,
* overseas investment,
* the creative industries.
The book demonstrates that our understanding of the historic
strengths and weaknesses of business in Britain, and the shifting
balance between sectors of the economy, has until now been poorly
understood, and that British business history needs a fundamental
reappraisal.
