Book Synopsis Britain in the World Economy since 1880 by : Bernard W.E. Alford
Download or read book Britain in the World Economy since 1880 written by Bernard W.E. Alford and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-06-06 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bernard Alford reviews the changing role, and diminishing influence, of Britain within the international economy across the century that saw the apogee and loss of Britain's empire, and her transformation from globe-straddling superpower to off-shore and indecisive member of the European Community. He explores the relationship between empire and economy; looks at economic performance against economic policy; and compares Britain - through and beyond the Thatcher years - with her European partners, America and Japan. In assessing whether Britain's economic decline has been absolute or merely relative, he also illuminates the broader history of the world economy itself.
Book Synopsis The Workshop of the World by : Jonathan David Chambers
Download or read book The Workshop of the World written by Jonathan David Chambers and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1968 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The period of British economic history covered in these pages is that of Britain's transition from a primarily agricultural and commercial economy to a modern industrial state whose supremacy rested on her world-wide shipping and credit agencies and mutually advantageous relations with her dependent empire. At the end of this period, Britain as a pioneer of the world industrial revolution had given place to Britain, the world's banker, trader, and collier, in competition with other nations whom she had materially helped along that same way. In view of the efforts of developing nations today, the manner in which this first transition was managed becomes of particular import. Professor Chambers' admirably balanced summary touches on every important aspect of the change which 'involved the community in a simultaneous creation of new forms of industry and transport and in an immense effort in agriculture and building... (and) placed new strains on a social and political system which had to reconcile the demand for increased output with the dawning awareness on the part of labour that industrialization held the key to economic advance for all and not only for the privileged few.' Both text and bibliography have been completely revised for this new edition." - Back cover.

Book Synopsis The Palgrave Handbook of Management History by : Bradley Bowden
Download or read book The Palgrave Handbook of Management History written by Bradley Bowden and published by Palgrave Macmillan. This book was released on 2020-10-16 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The coronavirus pandemic of 2019-20 and its associated global economic collapse has bluntly revealed that decision makers everywhere are ill-equipped to identify the innovative capacities of modern societies and, in particular, deploy managers to harness such capabilities. Getting the problem of management right is a voyage to the heart of human experience. Indeed, the perennial questions that haunt our existence almost invariably prompt answers that invoke conceptions of work, transformative effort and realisation of ideas. One way or another, all such endeavour requires management. It is often overlooked that more than any other discipline, management history brings into focus humanity’s most pressing questions. At the time of writing, these queries come with a disquieting urgency. What is management? How do its modern methods differ from those in pre-industrial societies? How does the management that emerged in Western Europe and North America in the nineteenth century differ from forms practiced in the twentieth? In what ways do Asian, African and South American societies have distinctive managerial philosophies? Perhaps most importantly, what don’t we know or don’t do very well? It is to these fundamental questions that the Palgrave Handbook of Management History speaks. The work’s 63 chapters – authored by 27 of the world’s leading management and business thinkers – explore virtually every aspect of management globally as well as across millennia. The series explores the theoretical contributions of classical Western business and management scholars (Adam Smith, Frederick Taylor, Elton Mayo, Peter Drucker, Alfred Chandler, etc.) as well as commentaries from critical theorists such as Michel Foucault, Jacques Derrida and Hayden White. The Handbook is also practical. For example, its content addresses the day to day experience of management in ancient Greece and Rome as well as the contemporary approaches of China, France, South Africa, India, Denmark, Australia, South America, New Zealand and the Middle East. In short, the Palgrave Handbook provides students of economics, management, business theory and practice, and critical studies with a single comprehensive and in-depth point of reference.
Book Synopsis Economic Relations Between Britain and Australia from the 1940s-196 by : J. Singleton
Download or read book Economic Relations Between Britain and Australia from the 1940s-196 written by J. Singleton and published by Springer. This book was released on 2001-12-14 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the early postwar era, Britain enjoyed a very close economic relationship with Australia and New Zealand through their common membership of the Sterling Area and the Commonwealth Preference Area. This book examines the breakdown of this relationship in the 1950 and 1960s. Britain and Australasia were driven apart by disputes over industrial protection, agriculture, capital supplies, and relations with other countries. Special emphasis is given to the implications for Australia and New Zealand of Britain's growing interest in European integration.
