Summary: | A critical look at Indian family businesses is provided in this volume. Sudipt Dutta shows how family-owned enterprises, while adapting to foreign cultural artefacts and structures, have sustained remarkably stable values over the generations. Unlike in the West or even East Asia, the Hindu-dominated Indian business fraternity stays in control by using a network of social and caste affiliations. Exploring the global future of Indian family businesses, the author maintains that the international business trends of networking and relational contracting will reinforce the Indian style of doing business. |
