Overview:
Charles Freedeman describes the rapid spread of the corporate form of organization after the law of 1867 allowing the establishment of corporations without government authorization, and he details the ensuing debates over attempts to 'reform' that law by making it both more restrictive and more liberal. Consideration is also given to the controversies over the role of foreign investment in the French economy, the structure of the banking system and its role in domestic and industrial finance, and the growth of industrial concentration.
