Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. 1st Edition. 173 pages. The evolution traced by Davies highlights how governments attempted to balance public accountability with corporate efficiency. The development of these entities generally follows several key historical phases:The Rejection of Post Office-Style Management: Early state interventions managed public services directly through civil service departments (like the Post Office). However, this model was heavily criticized for being too rigid, bureaucratic, and bound by Treasury financial controls.The Rise of the Semi-Autonomous Board: In the 1920s and 1930s, statutory bodies like the Central Electricity Board (1926) and the London Passenger Transport Board (1933) emerged. These set the precedent for the modern public corporation: an entity owned by the state but run by an independent board of experts rather than politicians.The Post-WWII Nationalisation Wave: Following the publication of Davies' book, the UK government formalised this framework to manage entire strategic sectors of the economy. The primary goal was to safeguard public welfare, secure capital investment for natural monopolies, and protect consumers from private exploitation (SL#126).…
