Rival States, Rival Firms
In this theoretically original work, two distinguished authors explore the mutual interdependence of states and firms throughout the world. They show how global structural changes - in finance, technology, knowledge and politics - often impel governments to seek the help and cooperation of managers of multinational enterprises. Yet, as Professors Stopford and Strange demonstrate, this is constrained by each country's economic resources, its socia…
Tinker, Tailor and Textile Worker
State Ownership and the Problem of the Work Incentive
Research on the labour process has recently been extended to include studies of state socialist enterprises. One of the most innovative streams has been based on Hungarian experience. So far little empirical research has been carried out on the 'foot-prints' of East European practice left by advisers in developing countries. A case study of a large Egyptian state textile enterprise is presented which suggests that many of the rigidities of tradit…

The pursuit of profit, the technocrats' role and the instability of the Nigerian state
1. Foreign Capital and Manufacturing. There is no doubt that, despite the oil boom, the contribution of the manufacturing sector to the GDP is particularly low in Nigeria. In 1970-1 its share (crafts included) at constant 1974-5 prices was 5.0%, 4.7% in 1974-5 and according to the Third National Development Plan 1975-80 (1:22,49) projected to 6.9% in 1979-80. Moreover, most of the total paid-up capital of manufacturing establishments was some yea…

Underdevelopment in Kenya
Employment Relationships and Economic Development - the Kenyan Experience
Until the late 1950s it was conventional wisdom in East Africa that the major problem of manpower development was one of attracting and retaining sufficient numbers of workers into the European-controlled labour force. Strategies, however, differed radically between plantation agriculture and industry. In Kenya the Government published two reports in 1955 on wages which well illustrate the contrast, and provide valuable insight into the interests…
