Concentration And Control: A Solution Of The Trust Problem In The United States (1912)

By Charles R Van Hise and Charles Richard Van Hise

Book Overview

Concentration and Control: A Solution of the Trust Problem in the United States is a book written by Charles Richard Van Hise in 1912. The book is an analysis of the problem of trusts, which were large corporations that had monopolized various industries in the United States during the early 20th century. The book argues that the concentration of wealth and power in the hands of a few large corporations was detrimental to the country's economic and social well-being. Van Hise proposes a solution to this problem by advocating for greater government regulation of the economy, which would ensure that the interests of the public were protected. The book is a seminal work in the history of American economic thought and has influenced subsequent debates about the role of government in regulating the economy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
