Description

Explore the evolution of the British construction industry with Rebuilding Construction (Routledge Revivals). This academic text provides a deep look into the economic organization and social structure of the sector during the 1970s and early 1980s. Author Michael Ball examines how major firms managed to survive the significant economic slump between 1973 and 1982. During this period, construction workloads saw a major collapse, forcing companies to change how they operated. The book details the restructuring of operations, client relationships, workforces, and subcontractor management that allowed these businesses to persist through difficult times. This volume is an essential resource for those studying economic change, industrial history, or the specific structural shifts within the British construction market. It offers a clear analysis of the causes behind the industry's poor industrial record and how companies adapted their internal systems to meet new economic realities.
