Based on the economics literature on technical change and legal history literature, we provide a constructivist and systematic framework to analyze law as mediation between regulators and firms’ respective behaviors. The analyzed historical case deals with the attempt of automobile multinationals to shape the European Economic Community vehicle emissions regulations. It focuses on the German fiscal policy to promote the sale of the so-called Clean Cars during the mid-1980s. We concluded that the regulation proposed by European Commission in the field of competition and environmental protection law successfully solved the clash between legitimate goals around emissions regulations. It covers implication in terms of normative order; political objectives coherency; firms’ profit strategies and relationships between firms and regulators through European trade associations. We find that the key factor of the firms’ positions to the law lies in information exchanged with political institutions, whose legal regulation acts as a signal integrated into the long-term firms’ strategies.","PeriodicalId":45724,"journal":{"name":"Management & Organizational History","volume":"14 1","pages":"442 - 468"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2019-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/17449359.2019.1702885","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44595160","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In contrast to the prevailing historiographical narrative of the RWR’s insignificance, the paper argues for a closer look at its practice in economic policy to gain deeper insight into its role within the political system. Referring to the heated public debates on consumer policy and cartels in the late 1920s, the findings indicate that the RWR formed a platform for economic actors at the intersection of state and economy to influence or even pre-formulate economic policy within the protected sphere of an institutionalized 'back-room', and beyond party politics. But on the other hand, the refusal of taking sides in political controversies may have triggered the RWR's successive marginalization in the early 1930s. Thus, the RWR’s ambiguous position mirrors the contested and undecided nature of economic order in the 1920s, and therefore allows us to see behind the curtain of the complex relations between economy, politics and state in Weimar Germany.","PeriodicalId":45724,"journal":{"name":"Management & Organizational History","volume":"14 1","pages":"366 - 381"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2019-09-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/17449359.2019.1659822","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48403223","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This question is central in an age of inequality. We argue that it can be reappraised by building upon the case of maritime law. Whereas in corporate law, the board is in charge of allocating the results, maritime law stipulates a clear ex ante rule according to which it allows a captain to sacrifice some goods to save the ship. This historical ‘rule of general averages’ emerged in Antiquity. It compels the interested parties to jointly bear costs. This rule makes visible what we call a ‘partnering effect’ of managerial authority and suggests that corporate law, as it currently stands, lacks a conceptualization of the impacts of managerial discretion and therefore limits the possibility of a fair allocation of results. While management scholars have sought to rethink management theory with a ‘view from law’, we conclude that law could also be discussed with a view from management history.","PeriodicalId":45724,"journal":{"name":"Management & Organizational History","volume":"15 1","pages":"295 - 314"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2019-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/17449359.2021.1877558","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46538154","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Foucault makes clear in his lectures that the notion of parrhesia has a long and varied history. This discussion considers a particular trajectory of this ancient idea: the practice of frank counsel in the context of the ethics of the Civil Service in Britain, focusing on the years of Conservative government in the 1980s. We begin by clarifying the interconnection between the practice of bureaucratic frank counsel in Britain and the concept of parrhesia. We are, however, primarily concerned to examine the fate of ‘bureaucratic frank counsel’. Foucauldian scholars of governmentality have been concerned to highlight how ethical attributes of enterprise and responsiveness have displaced the customary ethics of public service. The implication is that the frank counsel of public servants has been silenced. Revisiting the era in which the advanced liberal government of the Civil Service first took shape, we question this view. We explore the emergence of the idea of formal codification as a common aspiration for the defense of customary ethical practices. We conclude by arguing that a deep ambivalence now characterizes this domain of ethical practice.","PeriodicalId":45724,"journal":{"name":"Management & Organizational History","volume":"14 1","pages":"294 - 310"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2019-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/17449359.2019.1698439","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46278859","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It focuses upon the headquarters of National Provincial Bank of England, which was built in the 1860s. It explores the symbols and messages that those at the bank wished to communicate to those that viewed the building. The analysis finds that those at the bank impressed its national identity, achieved through its extensive branch network, as its key message which differentiated it from its rivals. Other symbols emphasized that it had adapted to the local market and was equal in terms of competency and richness in comparison to its competitors. We argue that these messages became part of the organization’s identity and its brand, as well as the culture of the City of London more broadly. The article provides a new explanation for symbolic meanings represented by bank architecture. It integrates the existing discussion of bank architecture in historical research with the theoretical frameworks and literature being developed in organizational identity and branding.","PeriodicalId":45724,"journal":{"name":"Management & Organizational History","volume":"14 1","pages":"213 - 244"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2019-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/17449359.2019.1683038","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47415860","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
