The Authorized Version: The Recent Installment in the History of the Bank of England
This book is a worthy successor to those commissioned by the Bank of England that cover its history from its foundation in 1694. It is written by an expert, is thoroughly researched, and provides a wealth of evidence to support the judicious conclusions that are drawn. The discussion ranges from the highly technical to the narrative, indicating the command that Harold James has over his subject. For the period it covers it will become the authori…
Boardroom Scandal: The Criminalization of Company Fraud in Nineteenth–Century Britain, by James Taylor
This book by James Taylor is an excellent example of an emerging approach to the study of the past that could be called forensic history, through reverting to the original meaning of the word ‘forensic’. Instead of relying upon the speeches of politicians, the diaries of the famous, the correspondence of the literate and the opinions of novelists, this branch of history tests the evidence as presented in courts of law, case-by-case, and uses that…

Financial crisis management and the pursuit of power: American pre-eminence and the credit crunch
The City of London as a Centre for International Banking: The Asian Dimension in the Nineteenth and Twentieth Centuries1
This chapter identifies the City of London as occupying a place at the very centre of international banking over the space of two centuries. London’s success is seen to rest on the combination of a highly successful money market cluster and a network that linked it to banks from around the world. Initially, preferential access to this market only allowed British overseas banks to expand successfully overseas from the mid-19th century onwards. How…
The City of London as an International Commercial and Financial Center since 1900
The relative importance of financial services in national economies varied over the course of the twentieth century. Rajan and Zingales note that “by most measures, countries were more financially developed in 1913 than in 1980 and only recently have they surpassed their 1913 levels” and that “indicators of financial development fell in all countries after 1929, reaching their nadir around 1980. Since then has been a revival of financial markets.…

This article addresses the pedagogical support of primary source work by reviewing relevant literature to identify the challenges undergraduates face in interpreting sources, and examining how in two courses carefully articulated course design and supportive teaching activ…
Management and Business in Britain and France: The Age of the Corporate Economy
For generations, the uneasy relationship between Britain and France has captured the popular and scholarly imagination. Comparative studies between the two countries abound, from political systems to eating habits: hitherto they have not extended to business history. There is now growing interest in comparative business systems, practices, and performance. In these areas comparison with America, Germany, or Japan have taken precedence. This volum…
