A Mercantilist Brand
This study analyzes the long-term power of mercantilist firms and brands in industries characterized by high uncertainty and asset specificity. It contrasts the reputation-building and protection strategies employed in two similar industries in Portugal in the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries; namely, those of Madeira and Port wine. The Portuguese crown created a collective brand for Port in 1756, the first regional appellation in the wo…
Unbundling the brand
Standard accounts of the concept of ‘modern brand’ consider it to have developed in the late nineteenth century with the second industrial revolution and to have a range of unique characteristics, including a personality of its own and to be protected by law. Modern brands are considered to have succeeded proto brands, which relied essentially on quality and origin for differentiation. To trace this path, standard accounts build strong links betw…
Transitioning from responsible and reactive to deeply responsible and proactive international business
Purpose This paper aims to explore the role of multi-national enterprises in addressing grand societal challenges, emphasising the need for integrating environmental and social aspects into business models. Drawing on the books of Geoffrey Jones (2023) “Deeply Responsible Business” and Rob van Tulder and Eveline van Mil (2023) “Principles of Sustainable Business”, the paper provides comments and analysis of how principles and values can guide eng…
Trademarks as “Global Merchants of Skill”
The Japanese match industry is an early case of an industry that changed global market dynamics by building international competitiveness through combining low-cost and low-price strategies with product differentiation. This differentiation was achieved through the registration of trademarks for all matches exported, total quality control, and strong investments in graphic design to adapt brands and their imagery to different host markets and cul…
A Educação Ambiental na formação inicial de professores/as
Este estudo teve como objetivo refletir sobre as contribuições da Pedagogia Crítica para a formação inicial de professores/as. Nesse sentido, buscou-se analisar a relação entre o currículo, a ideologia e a emancipação; em que prática pedagógica se ancora e se espera para alcançarem-se os objetivos almejados da Educação Ambiental; como a colaboração e a participação na produção do conhecimento e de saberes promovem emancipação nos sujeitos envolvi…
The Changing and Flexible Nature of Imitation and Adulteration
The first wave of globalization, from 1850 to 1914, is considered to be a period when global trade and investment increased at a steady pace, impacting on global economic growth. Yet that evolution was not consistent across all industries. This article explains why, during that period, global trade in wines and other alcoholic beverages was reversed. Apart from diseases that affected vineyards in the main wine-producing countries of the Old World…
The Nature of the Firm”—and the Eternal Life of the Brand
Explanations of why firms exist and evolve and how intellectual property—including trademarks—contributes to their growth, survival, and impact on globalization and deglobalization have been widely studied in business history and in other fields. Drawing on the study of firms with multinational activity, this article argues that ownership of strong brands can have multiple impacts on the nature of the firm, on the dynamics of industries, on proce…
Transaction costs in the international trade of port wine
Ce qui rend unique l’industrie du porto, ce sont ses firmes qui ont survécu pendant plusieurs siècles et sont nées mondiales, pratiquant exclusivement des activités internationales dès leur apparition. Cet article offre un survol des stratégies d’internationalisation de toutes les firmes qui ont participé au commerce international du porto durant le second XX e siècle et explique à la fois les grands défis auxquelles elles ont eu à faire face et …

The ‘disguised’ foreign investor
This article examines the impact of the British expatriate entrepreneur, and his processes of knowledge transfer, on the industrialization and economic development of Brazil between 1875 and 1914. It focuses on the textiles industry, and combines original trademark data with conventional trade and investment statistics, and also case study analysis about firms and their entrepreneurs. It argues that British investment in Brazil was higher and had…
Building Brand Reputation through Third-Party Endorsement
This article looks at the evolution of the British chocolate industry from the 1860s to the 1960s, a period during which it was dominated by Quaker businesses: Cadbury, Rowntree, and their predecessor, Fry. It provides evidence of early forms of fair trade by these Quaker businesses, showing that, before the fair trade movement took off in the 1970s, they contributed to social change and to improvement in living standards and long-term sustainabl…
Trademarks andBritish dominance in consumer goods, 1876-1914
LateVictorianBritain was very important in the development ofBritish dominance in light consumer goods industries, such as fermented liquors and spirits; detergents and perfumery; bicycles and other carriages; paper, stationery, and bookbinding; and games of all kinds and sports goods. Firms developed technology-based innovations and marketing-based innovations, creating abnormal peaks of trademark registrations in certain industries. This articl…
Foreign direct investment in high-risk environments
Since the banking crisis of 2008 the global economy is perceived as riskier than before. Firms that cannot manage risks have withdrawn from countries in which they previously invested. These problems are not new. For centuries firms have invested in risky foreign environments, and many of them have succeeded. This paper reviews the risk management strategies of foreign investors. Using archival evidence and secondary sources it distinguishes the …
Brand Protection and the Globalization of British Business
In expanding on earlier analyses of the evolution of multinational business that have drawn from concepts of competition and innovation, this study examines the strategies used by British multinationals, between 1870 and 1929, to protect the global reputation of their brands, which were crucial to their survival and success. Even after the passage of new trademark legislation in 1876, enforcement of trademarks remained expensive, and often firms …
Introduction
Once described as “neglected,” brands and brand history have benefited from a recent surge of work in business history, economics, and management studies. This research, however, remains relatively tightly focused. Most attention is given to successful, long-lived brands and to the entrepreneurs who developed them. As in the market, so in research, the attraction of successful brands is understandable. Nevertheless, such a focus only reinforces b…

Entrepreneurship and the Development of Global Brands
Over the course of the twentieth century, entrepreneurs developed a number of successful global brands in consumer-goods industries. However, few independent brands survived the merger waves of the 1980s. To address the question of why so few independent brands survived, this paper examines successful brands in industries that rely principally on advertising for competitive success. Successful consumer-goods brands in several industries and count…
Competing with Multinationals
This study looks at the formation of multinationals and relates that process to the emergence of institutions favorable to economic growth. It compares the development of such institutions from 1960 in four European countries: the United Kingdom, France, the Netherlands, and Portugal. The focus of the study is a global industry—alcoholic beverages—in which brands, marketing knowledge, and distribution channels have been critical. In order to unde…

Brands and the Evolution of Multinationals in Alcoholic Beverages
Brands have played a critical role in the evolution of multinationals in alcoholic beverages. As this article shows, brands often determined the nature and scope of mergers and acquisitions in this industry and so help explain the successive merger waves that have transformed it since the 1960s. The firms that became truly global were primarily those that developed a portfolio of successful brands recognised in many countries. By acquiring and re…
Ambiguous company
Institutional economics turns on some important theoretical dichotomies, in particular those between markets and firms and between institutions and organizations. This paper encourages both economists and historians to consider the middle ground between these extremes. Drawing on a study of the port wine trade at the beginning of the nineteenth century, it notes that both the firms and even the dominant Portuguese institution of the period were r…
