Chapter Chapter 10 in German Business Management, 2013, pp 211-237 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract Following the previous chapters’ topics, this chapter re-evaluates the changes in business management in postwar Germany through the early 1970s by applying the two frameworks described in Chapter 1—the total system of business management and the re-framing of Americanization. First, it summarizes the environmental factors of business management on the basis of mutual relations. Next, it considers problems stemming from the German approach to conform to American methods, affected by traditional and cultural factors in business management and institutional factors. In addition, it discusses influences of the structural characteristics of German capitalism such as the structures of productive forces, industries, and markets. It also examines the development of German-style business management in relation to the reproduction (accumulation) structure of German capitalism, which was appropriate for the European region. This chapter also explains the significance of the German business management model that developed in the European environment by comparing Germany’s situation in Europe with that of Japan’s in Asia.
