This book investigates the change from monopoly status to open market competition in large public companies in the US and Europe. Based upon the authors' consulting experience at At & T, Lucent, Electricite de France and the Italian State Railways, it reflects upon the implications of this transformation for democracy, stakeholder relations and the well-being of the actors, and considers how outside interveners can help make the change both easier and fairer to all parties.
