Modern Indian Business History: a Bibliographic Survey
Modern Indian Business History: A Bibliographic Survey N. Benjamin and Prabhash Narayana Rath Gokhale Institute of Politics and Economics Pune 411004. Abstract Business history has been a neglected area in both Economics and History due to various reasons. However, some scholars have attempted to write books on business history basing upon whatever material they could lay their hands on, whereas some others have written individual corporate histories, which are usually sympathetic accounts of the perspective corporate houses and are of restricted circulation. Realising the importance of business history accounts for proper understanding of the overall business and economic scenario of India, an attempt has been made to present a bibliographic survey of business history books in English language pertaining to the colonial and modern period. The paper aimed at presenting a comprehensive account of the books of the following types: viz. general business histories; industrial histories; in-house histories of different companies; souvenirs of the various chambers of commerce and industry; histories of the business houses; accounts of the business communities; and biographies and autobiographies of the businessmen. In the study, more than 550 books have been covered under eight sections each representing one of the above-mentioned types of business histories. Business History has been a neglected area in both Economics and History. One reason for this has been the dearth of source material. Many businessmen like Naval H. Tata willed that their papers be torn to pieces and burned after they passed away. Corporate managements have also allowed the papers to be destroyed rather than preserved once a monograph or book was written based on them. -
Verghese Kurien
Verghese Kurien March 12, 2021 About Verghese Kurien Verghese Kurien was born in Kozhikode, Kerala (then Madras Presidency) on 26th November 1921 into an affluent family. His father was a civil surgeon. He graduated in Physics from the Loyola College, Madras (now Chennai) and then completed a degree in mechanical engineering from the College of Engineering in the same city. Verghese Kurien (26 November 1921 – 9 September 2012), known as the “Father of the White Revolution” in India, was a social entrepreneur whose “billion-litre idea”, Operation Flood, made dairy farming India’s largest self-sustaining industry and the largest rural employment sector providing a third of all rural income. He pioneered the Anand model of dairy cooperatives and replicated it nationwide, based on various “top-down” and “bottom-up” approaches, where no milk from a farmer was refused and 70–80% of the price by consumers was paid in cash to dairy farmers. In 1973, he set up the Gujarat Cooperative Milk Marketing Federation Ltd. to set up dairies in a similar model (Anand pattern) all over Gujarat and use one brand name of Amul. An invention at Amul was the production of milk powder from buffalo milk instead of from cow milk, which was in short supply in India. He also made India self-sufficient in edible oils and fought against the “oil kings”, who used underhanded and violent methods to enforce their dominance over the oilseed industry. Kurien’s ‘White Revolution’ also led to the development of another brand ‘Mother Dairy’. Verghese Kurien Honored with Following Awards 1. -
