Pr�sentation de l'�diteur

British Trade after the War? The question is often asked, and by many with a note of anxiety in their tone. For it is realised by the great majority of thoughtful people that as soon as peace is declared and the war of big guns and massed millions closes, another kind of warfare will begin, in which our principal enemy will still be Germany. In the days before 1914 we used to talk of a friendly rivalry of international commerce, in which each competitor wished the other well and rejoiced in his steadily increasing prosperity. It is to be feared that there was a good deal of conscious or unconscious self-deception in those smooth phrases, and no Briton, at any rate, is likely to be under any misapprehension now as to the real purposes of German industrial organisation and enterprise before the war. It was to knock Great Britain out of the world market and take her place.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a passionate call to action for British business leaders in the wake of the First World War. The author argues that Britain's historic dominance in global trade is under threat, not only from powerful competitors like Germany, but also from the very structure of British industry itself. The author argues that the ingrained individualism of British businessmen, coupled with a societal disdain for trade, prevents the kind of collaboration and organized effort needed to thrive in a rapidly changing world. Through a series of insightful observations and sharp criticisms, the author outlines the shortcomings of British business practices, particularly the wasteful nature of competition and the lack of investment in research and education. He argues that the British, blinded by their own sense of superiority and reluctant to engage in the kind of systematic analysis and cooperation common in Germany, risk being left behind in the global race. This book is not simply a lament for a lost era; rather, it is a bold and timely blueprint for the future, calling for a radical shift in thinking and a commitment to organizing and modernizing British industry. The authorâ� �s call for a national Ministry of Commerce and industry-specific trade associations provides a concrete framework for how to address these challenges. This book will be of vital interest to anyone interested in the future of British industry and the challenges of competing in a globalized marketplace. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
