Excerpt from Strategy and Structure: Chapters in the History of the Industrial Enterprise

This need to enlarge (the scope of the Study made possible a broadening of its Objectives. One way to ascertain the impact of the more general economic and administrative developments on the growth and organiza tion of these industrial enterprises was to compare the experience of the four studied with that of many other similar large corporations. Such an expanded comparison not only could make the process of innovation in the four selected companies more comprehensible, but could also provide information on which generalizations might be made about the history of the industrial enterprise as an institution, and one of the most critically important of modern institutions at that. In this way what began as an experiment in comparative business history was broadened into one in the writing of institutional history.
