Problems and Challenges in Business History Research with Special Reference to the History of Business Administration and Operation

Author

Listed:
  • Larson, Henrietta M.

Abstract

The over-all challenge to research in business history is to provide facts and generalizations concerning the history of business which may lead to a better understanding of business itself and of its rôle in society. This is an urgent challenge in our age of revolution, a revolution in which the generally expressed objective is a better and more secure living, the political tool being largely economic class conflict, and the target, private capitalism.
