Smith During the three decades between the end of World War I and 1950, African and West Indian scholars, professionals, university students, artists, and political activists in London forged new conceptions of community, reshaped public debates about the nature and goals of British colonialism, and prepared the way for a revolutionary and self-consciously modern African culture. Black intellectuals formed organizations that became homes away from home and centers of cultural mixture and intellectual debate, and launched publications that served as new means of voicing social commentary and political dissent. These black associations developed within an atmosphere characterized by a variety of internationalisms, including pan-ethnic movements, feminism, communism, and the socialist internationalism ascendant within the British Left after World War I. The intellectual and political context of London and the types of sociability that these groups fostered gave rise to a range of black internationalist activity and new regional imaginaries in the form of a West Indian Federation and a United West Africa that shaped the goals of anticolonialism before 1950.

    Business Groups Exist in Developed Markets Also: Britain since 1850 Geoffrey Jones Working Paper 16-066 Business Groups Exist in Developed Markets Also: Britain Since 1850 Geoffrey Jones Harvard Business School Working Paper 16-066 Copyright © 2015 by Geoffrey Jones Working papers are in draft form. This working paper is distributed for purposes of comment and discussion only. It may not be reproduced without permission of the copyright holder. Copies of working papers are available from the author. Business groups exist in developed markets also: Britain since 1850 Geoffrey Jones Harvard Business School November 2015 Abstract Diversified business groups are well-known phenomenon in emerging markets, both today and historically. This is often explained by the prevalence of institutional voids or the nature of government-business relations. It is typically assumed that such groups were much less common in developed economies, and largely disappeared during the twentieth century. This working paper contests this assumption with evidence from Britain between 1850 and the present day. During the nineteenth century merchant houses established business groups with diversified portfolio and pyramidal structures overseas, primarily in developing countries, both colonial and independent. In the domestic economy, large single product firms became the norm, which over time merged into large combines with significant market power. This reflected a business system in which a close relationship between finance and industry was discouraged, but were there few restrictions on the transfer of corporate ownership. Yet large diversified business groups did emerge, which had private or closely held shareholding and substantial international businesses. The working paper argues that diversified business groups added value in mature markets such as Britain.

    1971 Annual Report and Account

    Unilever NV Report and Accounts 1976 The Unilever group of companies provides a wide range of products and services in some 75 countries, employing over 300 000 people. It has existed for nearly 50 years as a group, but can trace its roots much further back than that. There are two parent companies: Unilever N.V., Rotterdam, and Unilever Limited, London. Equal partners, they have identical Boards of Directors and are linked by agreements, one of which equalises the dividends payable on the ordinary capital of N.V. and of Limited, according to a formula set out elsewhere in this Report. Unilever operates as one group. The combined affairs of N.V. and Limited are, therefore, more important to shareholders than those of the two separate companies and the Report and Accounts deals, as usual, with the operations and results of Unilever as a whole: except where stated otherwise, all the figures are for N.V. and Limited combined. The larger part of Unilever is in branded and packaged consumer goods: mainly foods, detergents and toilet preparations. The foods include margarine, other fats and oils, ice cream, frozen and other convenience products, meat, fish, tea and other drinks. Unilever has other important activities, such as chemicals, paper, plastics and packaging, animal feeds, transport and tropical plantations. UAC International, a major Unilever company, has substantial interests in Africa and other parts of the world in diverse industrial ventures, and as merchants and specialist distributors. Unilever is one of the dozen largest businesses in the world by turnover- and the largest in consumer goods.

It provided for the merger in the following year of the Margarine Union and Lever Brothers Limited. The Margarine Union had been formed in 1927 by the Van den Bergh and Jurgens companies based in the Netherlands, and was later joined by a number of other Dutch and central European companies. Its main strength lay in Europe, especially Germany and the UK and its interests, whilst mostly in margarine and other edible fats, were also oil milling and animal feeds, retail companies and some soap production. Lever Brothers Limited was based in the UK but owned companies throughout the world, especially in Europe, the United States and the British Dominions. Its interests were in soap, toilet preparations, food (including some margarine), oil milling and animal feeds, plantations and African trading. One of the main reasons for the merger was competition for raw materials - animal and vegetable oils - used in both the manufacture of margarine and soap. However, the two businesses were very similar, so it made sense to merge as Unilever rather than continue to compete for the same raw materials and in the same markets. To understand how Unilever came into being you have to go back to the family companies that were instrumental in its formation.

  • 378 a Cinematic Soap Opera: Lever Brothers and the Use Of

    378 a Cinematic Soap Opera: Lever Brothers and the Use Of

    A Cinematic Soap Opera: Lever Brothers and the Use of Cinematography as a Promotional and Marketing Tool Jeannette Strickland, PhD student, Department of History, University of Liverpool, UK Unilever’s company historian claimed that radio and cinema advertising was not part of Lever Brothers/Unilever until the late 1930s (Wilson 1968). Despite the paucity of surviving archival sources it can be proved, however, that the company engaged with the new medium of cinematography from its earliest days. François-Henri Lavanchy-Clarke (1848-1922), who was coming towards the end of his life and reviewing his contribution to the development of cinematography as a marketing tool in Lever Brothers, proclaimed proudly to William Lever (1851-1925), the British soap manufacturer, “I procured you the first cinema”. This was in 1896, only months after the Lumière brothers perfected their techniques. Lever is renowned for his innovative approach to advertising and marketing and as a pioneer in creating brand identity, but what is not so well known is that he was one of the first businessmen to recognise the value of film as an advertising tool. It can even be claimed that a Lever Brothers’ product featured in the first ever example of product placement on film. Lavanchy-Clarke saw the promotional and marketing possibilities of cinematography from its very beginnings and persuaded Lever of its potential efficacy, utilising his connections with the Lumière brothers to source the equipment and make promotional films for Lever Brothers. Lavanchy-Clarke started with a spectacle at the International Exposition in Geneva in 1896, using a film of his own family washing clothes in a tub in their garden with boxes of Sunlight Soap placed prominently in the foreground.
