Bethlehem Steel

Sinopse

"In Bethlehem Steel, Kenneth Warren considers Bethlehem Steel's investment failures, indecision, and delay in choosing to abandon or restructure outdated "integrated" plants - all factors that plagued what had become an insular, inward-looking management group. Meanwhile, competition increased from more economical "mini mills" at home and from new, technologically superior plants overseas, which drove world prices down, causing huge flows of imported steel into the United States." "Bethlehem Steel provides a fascinating case study in the transformation of a major industry from one of American dominance to one where America struggled to survive."--BOOK JACKET.
