Subsequently, collaboration with Geoff Tweedale, Mads Mordhorst and Dev Gangjee, and participation in conferences and workshops, extended my interest in IGOs. Over time, I realised that this subject had been comparatively neglected by business historians. There were, of course, exceptions. Paul Duguid, for example, is prominent in debates on how and why regulatory and institutional change affected the development of IGOs in the port industry during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Nonetheless, it is fair to say that research on these indications has been dominated by scholars in legal history, marketing, and agricultural-rural development"-- Provided by publisher Notes Print version record Subject Marks of origin -- Law and legislation -- History Trademarks -- Law and legislation -- History Names, Geographical -- Law and legislation -- History BUSINESS & ECONOMICS -- Economic History.
