Using case studies and original source material, this book examines the historical development of business and public sector management in the UK from 1900 to the present day.
The key feature of the book is its treatment of both the private and public sectors. This rare combination provides new insights into the historical development of both sectors.
Via its historical development and primary research approach the book considers such contemporary issues as the transfer of practice between the business and public sectors, the public role of business and the development of corporate social responsibility, marketization, privatization, and public private partnerships.
