It is my birthday and I am 73 years old. ” It is now seven years since I made the first of the recordings which have been transcribed and edited to make the text of this book. I was persuaded to make these recordings by my friend, the art historian, Joseph Darracott. We had been friends for over forty years and finally I accepted that the project which he was proposing might be feasible and would be worth attempting. And so, in talking about my life as a painter, I applied myself to the discipline of working from a list of questions which had been prepared by Joseph. During our initial discussions about the book Joseph misunderstood my idea, which was to engage in a live dialogue with the cut and thrust of question and answer. The task of responding to questions which had been typed up in advance became much more difficult to deal with because an exercise such as this lacked the kind of stimulus which a live dialogue would have given to it.

  • How Does Family Control Influence a Firm's Acquisition and Divestiture
    How Does Family Control Influence a Firm’s Acquisition and Divestiture Behavior? Evidence from Swedish Listed Firms Tim Käsbach∗ Christian Ludwigs† Stockholm School of Economics May 2014 Abstract This paper investigates how family control affects a firm’s propensity to undertake acquisitions and divestitures as well as the performance consequences of these transactions. Making use of manually collected data on 242 Swedish listed companies during the period 2003-2012, we do not find evidence that family firms are less likely to engage in acquisitions than non-family firms. However, we show that family firms have a higher aversion towards equity-financed acquisitions, especially when the amount of voting rights held by the family owner is not sufficient to ensure the preservation of control. The willingness of family firms to overcome this aversion is well received by investors as reflected in higher announcement returns. Although divestitures are on average value-enhancing, we find that family controlled firms are associated with a lower likelihood of divesting. Finally, we provide evidence that family firms are more likely to undertake diversifying acquisitions and less likely to divest unrelated businesses. Keywords: Family firms, acquisitions, divestitures, corporate diversification *[email protected][email protected] Acknowledgements: We would like to thank our tutor Michael Halling, Assistant Professor of Finance at the Stockholm School of Economics, for his insightful comments and guidance.

The corporate governance of Samsung has been rather controversial. As the group faces the succession issue the corporate governance has become as crucial as their new products and services. Samsung has discovered a role model on the other side of the planet, Wallenberg Sphere in Sweden. Much effort has been made to learn about Wallenberg’s arrangements and key to its success. However, a fundamental difference between the institutions in Sweden and Korea has made the corporate structures of the two groups radically different.

  • Power Politics and the Empire of Economics: an Introduction
    Power Politics and the Empire of Economics: An Introduction By: Andrew Gavin Marshall The President sat and listened to his closest adviser as they plotted a strategy to maintain Western domination of the world economy. The challenge was immense: divisions between industrial countries were growing as the poor nations of the world were becoming increasingly united in opposition to the Western world order. From Africa, across the Middle East, to Asia and Latin America, the poor (or ‘developing’) countries were calling for the establishment of a ‘New International Economic Order,’ one which would not simply serve the interests of the United States, Western Europe, and the other rich, industrial nations, but the world as a whole. It was on the 24th of May 1975 when President Gerald Ford was meeting with his Secretary of State and National Security Adviser, Henry Kissinger, easily the two most powerful political officials in the world at the time. Kissinger told the President: “The trick in the world now is to use economics to build a world political structure.”1 Ford and Kissinger agreed that the United States could not accept a new ‘economic order’ that would undermine American and Western power throughout the world. Uprisings, revolutions and liberation movements across Africa, Asia and beyond had largely thrown off the shackles of European colonial domination, establishing themselves as independent political nation-states with their own interests and objectives. Chief among those goals was for economic independence to follow political independence, to take control of their own resources and economies from the Europeans and Americans, to determine their own economic policies and help to redistribute global wealth along equal and just lines.
