Krooss on Executive Opinion

J. R. T. Hughes

The Journal of Economic History, 1976, vol. 36, issue 1, 166-172

Abstract: In Executive Opinion, Herman Krooss analyzed American business thought in this century and found that the country's business and labor leaders, statesmen, journalists, and economists, did not have very profound insights on most of the great issues of their day. He also concluded that although in the past there was considerable diversity of executive opinion, the differences have decreased in our own time due to the decline of the entrepreneurial leader. Executive Opinion is a disquieting and dispiriting book which will long stand as a starkly honest comment on the twentieth century and as a monument to Herman Krooss' insight into the economic development of this country.
