title = {Transition in East Germany: A British View},
year = {1996},
note = {The article reviews the process whereby two British academics (with
prior knowledge and experience of both the FRG and GDR) developed in
1990 a research project to investigate how an East German company made
the transition from communism to privatisation. The project soon
developed from a longitudinal study of one company to encompass a
range of companies differentiated by location, industry, privatisation
stage and mode, and owner origins. The analysis of the interview data
permitted the identification of patterns and commonalties of the
emergence of corporate strategy. The authors portray the main
characteristics of different phases of that process and indicate that
not every company had progressed through all phases of the process.},
