Features: To comprehensively and correctly understand capitalism in order to draw lessons from and learn from all the civilized achievements of capitalist society, build a socialism superior to capitalism, and publish the "Contemporary Capitalism Research Series." This series mainly translates works by foreign scholars on various aspects of contemporary capitalism, and will also publish works by Chinese scholars on contemporary capitalism when appropriate. By knowing ourselves as well as others, we can accelerate our development and gain control over the main trends of the world development pattern in the coming new century, placing us in a more favorable position. This book is part of the "Contemporary Capitalism Research Series." It studies the structure of contemporary capitalist companies and their historical process of change, and provides an in-depth analysis of the trend of separating controlling and managerial power. The book argues that as company sizes expand and production and operations become globalized, the specialized managerial class will gradually replace families and become the center of corporate development, and the managerial class will also gradually become part of the capitalist class.
