About this title

Synopsis

This book concentrates on the evolving American industry landscape, where vast economic advantages drive concentration and control within the manufacturing sector. During and following the Civil War, major developments in transportation and communication, coupled with a shift toward limited liability corporations, set the stage for the rise of large-scale manufacturing. The author examines the causes and consequences of this transformation, including the role of protective tariffs, railroad rebates, and unfair competitive practices. The book delves into specific examples of concentrated industries, offering an in-depth analysis of their economic implications. Overall, it sheds light on the factors that have shaped the structure of American industry, providing insights into the challenges and opportunities presented by the ongoing trend toward concentration.
