 | The Emergence of Systematic Management as Shown by the Literature of Management from 1870-1900 Subjects: Economics Finance Business & Industry; Business Management and Accounting; Human Resource Management; Organizational Studies; Strategic Management; Management Education; Critical Management Studies; Leadership; This study, originally published in 1986, is directed to the period before the establishment of scientific management as a recognised movement, in an attempt to answer two basic questions: was there a body of management literature immediately preceding the emergence of scientific management? Did this literature, if it existed, have a central concept or approach which could be recognised? This title will be of interest to students of business studies and management. |
