Hardcover/gebunden. Condición: deutliche Gebrauchsspuren. mak. Bibl. / library This book deals with a subject of profound importance to understanding the place of the modern corporation in a democratic society. This is the inherent conflicts between the interest of corporate owners (the shareholders), the interest of the larger society, and the interest of the managers who run the corporations. Managers have created a shared professional ideology that is designed to preserve their autonomy. To protect itself from unbridled corporate power, government has enacted a myriad regulations to check this power. The book describes how, in different eras the balance between corporate power and government regulation has changed with the interests of society as a whole. The authors conclude by looking at the impact of collective investor action--especially institutional investors--on the efforts by managers to preserve their autonomy. In englischer Sprache. pages.…

Paperback. Condición: Very Good. 488 pages. No one today thinks of Brooklyn, New York, as an agricultural center. Yet Kin gs County enjoyed over two centuries of farming prosperity. Even as late as 1880 it was one of the nation's leading vegetable producers, second only to neighbor ing Queens County. In Of Cabbages and Kings County, Marc Linder and Lawrence Za charias reconstruct the history of a lost agricultural community. Their study fo cuses on rural Kings County, the site of Brooklyn's tremendous expansion during the latter part of the nineteenth century. In particular, they question whether sprawl was a necessary condition of American industrialization: could the agricu ltural base that preceded and surrounded the city have survived the onrush of re sidential real estate speculation with a bit of foresight and public policies th at the politically outnumbered farmers could not have secured on their own? The first part of the book reviews the county's Dutch American agricultural traditi on, in particular its conversion after 1850 from extensive farming (e.g., wheat, corn) to intensive farming of market garden crops. The authors examine the grow ing competition between local farmers and their southern counterparts for a shar e of the huge New York City market, comparing farming conditions and factors suc h as labor and transportation. In the second part of the book, the authors turn their attention to the forces that eventually destroyed Kings County's farming? ranging from the political and ideological pressures to modernize the city's rur al surroundings to unplanned, market-driven attempts to facilitate transportatio n for more affluent city dwellers to recreational outlets on Coney Island and, o nce transportation was at hand, to replace farms with residential housing for th.…
