Business Organization And Combination

Excerpt from Business Organization and Combination: An Analysis of the Evolution and Nature of Business Organization in the United States and a Tentative Solution of the Corporation and Trust Problems This book deals with the organization of business enterprises, chiefly in the United States. While the author has designed the book for use in American colleges and universities, he has kept in mind the interests of the business man and of the general reader. It is hoped that the book will be of service to that large class of thoughtful business men who desire a comprehensive knowledge of the economic and legal aspects of the organizations with which they are associated. To accomplish his design the author has avoided unduly technical language wherever possible, and has sought to explain any unusual usage. Numerous concrete illustrations of business organization are given. Indeed, the author believes that in no similar work will so large a mass of up-to-date illustrative data be found. It is believed that the reader may secure from the following pages a good general knowledge of the legal principles which concern the various forms of business organization and combination. On several important points the leading cases are cited. If the book has any merits, one of them must be its careful definition of terms and its accurate classification of forms. Much thought has been given to accomplishing these ends without going so far from the current usage as to make the definitions and classifications impracticable. It is modestly hoped, therefore, that the work may serve as a step toward a more systematic and scientific knowledge of the forms of business organization. Especial study has been given to the problem of making the corporation a more desirable citizen than it now is. In connection with that problem, the reader's attention is invited to the suggestion that a new form of organization is needed in the United States, - a limited-liability association which will occupy the gap between the partnership and the corporation.
