This book examines the twentieth-century rise and fall of state-owned enterprises (SOEs), a chief instrument of state economic intervention. Through studies of such enterprises in Western Europe and the United States, the authors offer historical perspectives on the origins of SOEs, their performance, and the reasons for their precipitate decline.
