The Roots of Decline: Business-Government Relations in the American Steel Industry, 1945–1960
研究1945-1960年美国钢铁业政商关系，发现公共政策对行业后续衰落的影响不亚于学者此前指出的其他因素，对关注产业政策与行业衰退的读者有参考价值。
Recent problems in the performance of the American steel industry have prompted a number of calls for an “industrial policy” for this sector. Before any such programs of public intervention can be considered, however, it would behoove public policymakers to examine why the industry fell into its present state of decline. This paper, an abstract of a longer study, analyzes the relations of business and government in American steel from 1945 to 1960, and concludes that public policies had as much to do with subsequent industry decline as did other factors previously delineated by scholars.
