The Network Company Model: An Anglo-Saxon Innovation or just a Re-invention? %A Olivier de Gromard %J Revue LISA / LISA e-journal %D 2009 %I Maison de la Recherche en Sciences Humaines %R 10.4000/lisa.2355 %X Since the early 1980s, the network company has become more widespread as it is considered the most appropriate organisational structure in a global economy. It is commonly agreed that this type of organisation is an Anglo-Saxon model. The aim of this article is to give some insights into this current opinion, through two complementary analyses: the first one investigates the link between the innovative boost in Anglo-Saxon countries and the creation of the network company model; the second one considers the role of traditional Chinese capitalism in the exceptional economic success of Hong Kong under British sovereignty. %K firme-r¨¦seau %K entreprise en r¨¦seau %K capitalisme en r¨¦seau %K capitalisme chinois %K network firm %K network company %K network capitalism %K Chinese capitalism %K XXe si¨¨cle %K 20th century %K soci¨¦t¨¦ %K Grande-Bretagne %K ¨¦tats-Unis %K society %K Great Britain %K United States %K histoire %K history %K ¨¦conomie %K economy %K Chine %K China %K Hong Kong %U http://lisa.revues.org/2355
