Description

This resource, from the EconEdLink-reviewed Commanding Heights: The Battle for the World Economy Web site, presents an essay on the rise of state-owned companies in the 20th century. The state company came to be seen as essential both to development and to nationhood. It was believed that state-owned companies would pursue the public good rather than the special interests of merchants, industrialists, and wealthy families.
