Strong Managers, Weak Owners

Strong Managers, Weak Owners

Editorial Reviews
Review
David Vogel, University of California, Berkeley : No one before has ever written a comprehensive poltical history of the fragmentation of stock ownership nor demonstrated the critical role that this fragmentation has played in shaping the power of managers in the American business system. Roe has provided a powerful and original explanation of the emergence and persistence of managerial autonomy in the United States.
Peter H. Aranson, Emory University : A seminal work that should become [a] mainstay for years to come.

Review
Roe ... argues persuasively that old-fashioned politics ... play[s] the key role in building a structure of corporate finance.... Strong Managers, Weak Owners does for corporate governance what Alfred Chandler's The Visible Hand did for the corporation: makes history essential to understanding current practice and policy.
