Outline of Final Research Achievements

By comparing the interfirm relationship of steel of prewar period with that of high economic growth period in this research project, I made clear that there are many differences and commonalities between two periods. Above all, there are some differences in the kinds of environment that surrounded these relationships.
With regard to the commonalities between the two periods, not only before the war but also after the war, market and organizational principles not only offered alternatives to each other but, depending on the circumstance, also worked in a complementary manner.
