Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Causes of Decay in a British Industry The object of this book is to present, with as few figures and technicalities as possible, an account of one of the most important productive crafts of Great Britain. The authors, from their long association with the industry, have an actual knowledge of its working in all its world-wide ramifications, and they believe that this endeavour to show how home and foreign legislation has affected the volume of the trade in this country cannot fail to be of interest to all who wish to see Great Britain maintain her position in international commerce. Persons actually engaged in an industry are better able than are other people to appreciate the effects upon their own trade of political changes, fresh general legislation, and varying economic conditions, whilst they alone are in position to pronounce authoritatively whether special legislation restricted to that industry has a detrimental or a beneficial effect. The authors state with frankness what has been the result of recent legislation upon their business. In the first place they show, from records other than Board of Trade returns, how the industry was established, how it grew and thrived in Great Britain. For nearly half a century there are records of the annual output from the Birmingham district, and from these, and a mass of independent collateral evidence, the authors prove beyond a doubt that the industry is declining in Great Britain.
