What factors led to the rise of the corporation after 1865?
In the early nineteenth century, the corporate form of business organization had been used to raise large amounts of start-up capital for transportation enterprises such as turnpikes and canals. By selling stocks and bonds to raise money, the corporation separated the company’s managers, who guided its day-to-day operation, from the owners—those who had purchased the stocks and bonds as investments. After the Civil War, American business leaders pioneered new forms of corporate organization that combined innovative technologies, creative management structures, and limited liability should the enterprise fail. The rise of corporate America in this period is a story of risk-taking and innovation as well as of rapacity and ruthlessness.
