This edited volume provides an anthropological study of family businesses and business families. Similarly, although the topics of kinship and the economy are central to anthropological analysis, research on family firms and business families has been a marginal topic only that lacks in-depth discussions within anthropology.
Tobias Koellner is Senior Research Fellow at the Witten Institute for Family Business at the Witten/Herdecke University, Germany.
