Multinational companies and the cultural industries: W.H. Smith in Canada, 1950–1989
No full textThe political hazards that host country governments pose multinational companies are multifaceted and persistent. This study focuses on the experience of the Canadian subsidiary of British retailer W.H. Smith and Son in order to examine how host country policy can influence a multinational operating in the cultural industries. While bargaining models have previously provided the principal analytical lens for analyzing the interaction between multinationals and host governments, I argue that such frameworks lack the necessary nuance in order to explain fully the interaction between the Canadian government and W.H. Smith. In order to address the intricacy of these relations, it is necessary to integrate insights from new institutional economics with conventional bargaining frameworks

W.H. Smith and Son's circulating library
No full textThe role played by the circulating libraries in the history of library provision is unique to Britain. There was no similar development on a comparable scale in either Europe or America. The circulating libraries bridged the gap from the period when books were almost the exclusive province of the rich to the present situation of a national free public library service. During this transitional period there were great social, economic and political changes which reflected upon and were reflected by the progress of the circulating libraries. The literature on these libraries has tended to be dominated by the 'leviathan', Charles Mudie's 'Select Library', whilst comparatively scant attention has been paid to W.H. Smith and Son's library. This has resulted in a neglect of the major and unique contribution made by this library to library history. The aim of this study is to rectify that situation
