  When I agreed to recount the story of the Business Historical Society, I naturally thought it was my own swan song that was expected. The occasion was presented to me as the probable closing of a period in the history of the Society and the opening of another day. On thinking over the events of the last twenty-five years, however, I have discovered a number of facts of larger issue and have had a chance to peer beneath the curtain of changing cir…

  We must begin with a survey of the types of business which have existed throughout the known ages. In no other way can we obtain a perspective for understanding the present and for anticipating the future. In no other way can we become accustomed to the idea and the fact of eternal change, which is the life of society as of nature.That there ever was a pre-capitalistic stage may be doubted, though such a view has been maintained. If by capitalism…

  Jamsetji Tata was once a merchant, like his father, but unlike his father he became a great industrialist. Instead of specializing in one huge concern, he spread out to establish many companies of high quality and strategic importance—the foundation of modern Industrial India. It was in part owing to his work that India was able recently to wage a war on the side of the Allies without much help from Britain

  Someone may say that he has not yet learned what a business history is and therefore that he is in no position to consider the types of business history that may exist. Perhaps, however, it may help in grasping the essentials of business history if these types are set forth. Right at the beginning of this effort we should note that we have in mind the history of a business unit — a business man, a firm, or a company. To be sure, there are other a…

  Man has developed three types of explanation of phenomena. The oldest is deistic or theological. From earliest times man has explained happenings and situations by looking to outside powers, at first to many gods and later to one all-powerful deity. We still say, “God wills it,” “Thy will be done,” and “the Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away.” But, not later than the flowering of the Greek mind, a second type arose, namely, the metaphysical or …

  When we read about “government control” in recent years and then reflect upon the old term “government regulation,” we wonder whether a change has occurred. We ask our friends and find that they feel that there is a difference between the old regulation and the new control, but they hesitate to state what the difference is. Then we sit down to wrestle with the problem. The exercise is not easy. Perhaps the historical approach will be helpful

  Sir Andrew Freeport belonged to the same club as the better-known Sir Roger de Coverley. Sir Andrew was of the moneyed interest and a great sedentary merchant, while Sir Roger was the typical landed gentleman. Probably a hundred persons have heard of the gentleman to one person who knows about the merchant. But the two were alike in being the creation of Joseph Addison's imagination and in coming to light in the show-case window of The Spectator …
