100 Families That Changed the World JOSEP TÀPIES • ELENA SAN ROMÁN • ÁGUEDA GIL LÓPEZ 100 FAMILIES THAT CHANGED THE WORLD Family Businesses and Industrialization “If there is one quality that centenarian firms have in common, it is that they have known how to adapt to the many circumstances and challenges they have been faced with. Family businesses are usua- lly managed with a long-term vision, and there can be no doubt that the companies featured in this book provide a clear example of how to achieve this.” José María Serra, chairman of Grupo Catalana Occidente “This book is an effective tool for better understanding the manage- rial and industrial development of family businesses. This is undoub- tedly an objective approach that allows the reader to learn about the key factors that, in each case, have been fundamental to the suc- cess of centenarian companies. Moreover, it is a work of study and analysis that reveals the best practices of each company in an effort to keep its activity going throughout the years.” Tomás Osborne, chairman of the Osborne Group 100 Families That Changed the World Family Businesses and Industrialization Josep Tàpies, Águeda Gil, Elena San Román All rights reserved.

We would first like to thank Professor Salvador Rus. His interest in family businesses prompted him to create an initial collec- tion of long-standing family companies, which then became the seed this book stemmed from. Our thanks also go to Mónica Pérez Jiménez and Teresa Mateo, whose efficient and diligent collaboration helped ripen these pages. In addition to the abovementioned, we have had the opportunity to discuss the development and unfolding of the present pages

The day before yesterday 166 Notes 175 Images 191 Introduction and acknowledgements POLITICS AND SPORT are by definition incompatible, and they're combustible when mixed. The 1930s proved that: the Winter Olympics in Germany in 1936, when the President of the International Olympic Committee threatened to cancel the Games unless the anti-semitic posters were all taken down now, whatever Adolf Hitler decrees; the 1936 Summer Games in Berlin and Hitler's look of utter disgust when Jesse Owens, a negro, won the 100 metres; the World Heavyweight title fight in 1938 between Joe Louis, a negro, and Germany's Max Schmeling which carried racial undertones and overtones. The fight lasted 2 minutes 4 seconds, and in that time Louis knocked Schmeling down four times. They say that some of Schmeling's teeth were found embedded in Louis's glove... Motor racing, a dangerous but genteel activity in the 1920s and early 1930s, was touched by this, too, and touched hard. The combustible mixture produced two Grand Prix races at Donington Park, in 1937 and 1938, which were just as dramatic, just as sinister and just as full of foreboding. This is the full story of those races.

Constraints to Growth of the Demand Table 9 shows population per an automobile for U.S.A., U.K., France and Germany 10 1925, 1928 and 1932 respectively. This allows us to gain a broad idea of the stan­ dard of "motorization" in these countries at that time. Again, the United States maintain an overwhelming superiority, but what is significant is the fact that Germa­ ny's level was much lower even in comparison with U.K. and France. The inferiority remains basically unchanged in the peroid of rapid growth of output under the industrial rationalization movement (from 1928 to 1932). It is not unreasonahle, under these circumstances, to conclude that automobile market in Germany had a remarkable growth poten tial, and in fact, that was the expectation of owners of autOillobile companies. It was not so in reality, because of a number of constraints, of which the followings seem to be important. First, the National Railways (Reichsbahn), with its highly developed railway network, exerted monopolistic power in transportation of cargo and passenger in the country, and the Reich government strongly supported it by pursuing railway-cen­ tered transportation policy.
