Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - In 1870, John D. Rockefeller founded a company that would come to control nearly 90 percent of American oil refining within a decade. Standard Oil was not simply a business success-it was a new kind of power, one that operated outside the boundaries…of existing law, rewrote the rules of American commerce, and forced a nation to confront a question it had never seriously asked: how much power could a private corporation hold before it became a threat to democracy itself This book traces Standard Oil's rise from a Cleveland refinery to a continental empire, examining the mechanisms Rockefeller deployed to crush competitors-secret railroad rebates, predatory pricing, industrial espionage, and the revolutionary legal instrument of the trust. It follows the journalists, politicians, and attorneys who built the case against the company, culminating in the landmark 1911 Supreme Court decision that broke Standard Oil into thirty-four pieces and gave birth to the modern antitrust era.Drawing on corporate records, congressional testimony, and Ida Tarbell's foundational investigative journalism, this history shows how Standard Oil did not merely dominate an industry-it shaped the legal, political, and economic architecture of twentieth-century America. Its legacy lives in every antitrust lawsuit, every regulatory agency, and every debate about corporate power that followed.
