The Bigness Complex confronts head-on the myth that organizational
giantism leads to economic efficiency and well-being in the modern
age. On the contrary, it demonstrates how bigness undermines our
economic productivity and progress, endangers our democratic
freedoms, and exacerbates our economic problems and challenges.
This new edition has a thoroughly updated variety of issues,
examples, and new developments, including government bailouts of
the airline industry; regulation of biotechnology; the fiasco of
recent electricity deregulation; and mergers and consolidations in
oil, radio, and grocery retailing. The analysis is framed in the
timeless context of American distrust of concentrations of power.
The authors show how both the left and the right fail to address
the central problem of power in formulating their diagnoses and
recommendations. The book concludes with an alternative public
philosophy as a viable guidepost for public policy toward business
in a free-enterprise democracy.
