Description

Entrepreneurship in the Age of Empire examines the complex relationship between politics and commerce during a transformative period in British history. This Routledge study focuses on the India and Eastern Trading Company Limited, established in 1906 to finance a jute plantation in Assam, north-east India, using this London-registered enterprise as a lens to understand broader socio-political and economic changes. The book traces how family capitalism and industrial economics gradually gave way to speculative investment and the marketing of ideas, offering insights into international management practices and commercial culture during this watershed moment. Ideal for scholars, business historians, and students exploring the intersection of colonialism, commerce, and entrepreneurship, this volume provides critical analysis of how colonial enterprises shaped modern business structures and global trade networks during the early twentieth century.
