Strategic Maneuvering and Mass-Market Dynamics: The Triumph of VHS over Beta
This article deals with the diffusion and standardization rivalry between two similar but incompatible formats for home videocassette recorders (VCRs): the Betamax, introduced in 1975 by the Sony Corporation, and the VHS (Video Home System), introduced in 1976 by the Victor Company of Japan (Japan Victor or JVC). Despite being first to the home market, the Beta format fell behind the VHS in market share during 1978 and declined thereafter. By the…
Technological Pioneering and Competitive Advantage: The Birth of the VCR Industry
This article examines a significant example of technological pioneering-the development of an emerging technology in pursuit of future comercial opportunity. In this case, the pioneer's efforts resulted in the birth of a major industry, the manufacture of videocassette recorders for the mass consumer market. The authors compare the actions of six firms that were pioneers in the development of this technology-two in the U.S. and four in Japan. Thr…

The Sources of Increased Efficiency: A Study of DuPont Rayon Plants
Men and Machines: Some 19th-Century Analyses of Mechanization
THE INCREASING MECHANIZATION of man's productive tasks is a phenomenon that has been gathering momentum for more than 200 years. This process of mechanization, catalyzed by social and scientific changes, crossed an important threshold in eighteenth-century England and became self-sustaining. In so doing, it became a powerful and independent force among the complex of factors which were shaping Western culture. That force is still present; its tru…
Post-War Investment, Location and Size of Plant
A Conjecture about Fashion and Vertical Process Integration
The prosperity of an industrial enterprise depends upon its ability to adapt continuously to the evolving market for its goods. This paper considers the consequences of one kind of industrial strategy — vertical integration — when the relevant market is strongly influenced by fashion
