Why are the British Bad at Manufacturing?, Paperback / softback Book

Why are the British Bad at Manufacturing? Paperback / softback

Part of the Routledge Library Editions: Industrial Economics series

Paperback / softback

Description

This book, first published in 1983, offers a new explanation for the poor performance of British manufacturing since 1950.

Rather than invoke orthodox economic theory or general social factors, the book analyses four national conditions – enterprise control over the labour process; market structure and the composition of demand; the relation of manufacturing enterprise to financial institutions like banks and stock exchanges; and the relation of manufacturing enterprise to government.
