Description:

Throughout Europe, governments have acted in accordance with the conviction that a larger and uniform market would enable greater economies of scale and growth of large corporations. This title shows how nature of firms is embedded in the larger societal context of nations, preventing a homogenised firm-type spreading across European countries.

Synopsis:

Throughout Europe, governments have acted in accordance with the conviction that a larger and uniform market would enable greater economies of scale and the growth of large corporations. The contributions to this volume, in contrast, show how the nature of firms is embedded in the larger societal context of nations, preventing a homogenised firm-type spreading across European countries. It becomes clear that researchers should locate the firm in the social context in which it is rooted, rather than looking to economic science to explain a 'non-ideal type.'
