The British Engineering Press during the Second Industrial Revolution: Responses to Corporate Capitalism

Peter Botticelli

Business History Review, 1997, vol. 71, issue 2, 260-286

Abstract: This work presents a controlled sampling of texts which might, through further research, provide the basis for a broad theoretical investigation of the cultural response of British managers, engineers and entrepreneurs to the so-called second industrial revolution in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Also, the texts are organized by theme, as a preliminary effort to establish an empirical critique of prevailing historiographical interpretations of the content and influence of Britain's business culture with respect to competitive pressures from abroad.
