The Rise of Planning in Industrial America, 1865-1914 Paperback / softback

Description

Central economic planning is often associated with failed state socialism, and modern capitalism celebrated as its antithesis.

This book shows that central planning is not always, or even primarily, a state enterprise, and that the giant industrial corporations that dominated the American economy through the twentieth century were, first and foremost, unprecedented examples of successful, consensual central planning at a very large scale.
