en Limba Engleză Paperback – 13 dec 2021

The Routledge Companion to Business History is a definitive work of reference, and authoritative, international source on business history. Compiled by leading scholars in the field, it offers both researchers and students an introduction and overview of current scholarship in this expanding discipline.
Drawing on a wealth of international contributions, this volume expands the field and explores how business history interacts theoretically and methodologically with other fields. It charts the origins and development of business history and its global reach from Latin America and Africa, to North America and Europe. With this multi-perspective approach, it illustrates the unique contribution of business history and its relationship with a range of other disciplines, from finance and banking to gender issues in corporations.
The Routledge Companion to Business History is a vital source of reference for students and researchers in the fields of business history, corporate governance and business ethics.
"This collection is an excellent starting point for understanding the field and finding areas where business history, management theory, and social science can intersect." Canadian Business History Newsletter, January 2019

Recenzii

"This collection is an excellent starting point for understanding the field and finding areas where business history, management theory, and social science can intersect." Canadian Business History Newsletter, January 2019
The contributions to this collection provide concise and insightful overviews of the development, current state and future research directions of key aspects of the field of business history. Taken together, they capture the methodological, thematic and geographic diversity of a vibrant scholarly discipline with roots in and links to the broader fields of history, economics, management studies and sociology.
Ray Stokes, Professor of Business History, University of Glasgow, Director, Centre for Business History in Scotland, Executive Editor, Business History
Adventurously eclectic, authoritative and thought-provoking, this new handbook, organised in geographic and thematic chapters, is freshly up-to-date. It will be valued by specialist business historians wanting to catch up on missed recent work in related areas and social scientists aiming to deepen their researches by adding a business historical dimension.
Leslie Hannah, Visiting Professor, London School of Economics.
