Global Electrification

Global Electrification: Multinational Enterprise and International Finance in the History of Light and Power, 1878-2007 This book examines how, from the late 1870s, multinational enterprises and international finance influenced the spread of electrification around the world. Although by 1978 they had been replaced by electrical utility providers, more recently they have had a revival. The result is a truly global account of electrification. Autor: William J.
