Strong Managers, Weak Owners
Princeton University Press (Verlag)
978-0-691-02631-2 (ISBN)
In this major reinterpretation of the evolution of the American corporation, Mark Roe convincingly demonstrates that the ownership structure of large U.S. firms owes its distinctive character as much to politics as to economics and technology. His provocative examination addresses essential issues facing American businesses today as they compete in the new international marketplace.
Mark J. Roe is a professor at Columbia Law School.
