It evaluates the economic theory, the formation of the figure of the entrepreneur, as well as the structure of the companies. This exploration of the businessmen in Spain over several centuries is something that has not been done until now. Joining the great Spanish historiographical debate about the existence or not of entrepreneurship, the book brings together research in very different historical contexts and junctures. It presents a selection of cases of companies and entrepreneurs from Spain, from different sectors, regions and periods, from boom to crisis, from the wine businessman to the railway sector, from private banking to the pioneers of the Spanish travel agency business. It will be of interest to academics and students in economic history, business and management history, as well as researchers in entrepreneurship & small business management. 410 0$aPalgrave Studies in Economic History,$x2662-6500 606 $aEconomic history 606 $aLabor economics 606 $aPopulation$xEconomic aspects 606 $aEntrepreneurship 606 $aNew business enterprises 606 $aEurope$xHistory 606 $aEconomic History 606 $aLabor and Population Economics 606 $aEntrepreneurship 606 $aEuropean History 615 0$aEconomic history. 615 0$aLabor economics. 615 0$aPopulation$xEconomic aspects. 615 0$aEntrepreneurship. 615 0$aNew business enterprises. 615 0$aEurope$xHistory. 615 14$aEconomic History. 615 24$aLabor and Population Economics. 615 24$aEntrepreneurship. 615 24$aEuropean History. 676 $a338.040946 676 $a338.040946 702 $aVa?zquez Farin?as$b Mari?a 702 $aOrtu?n?ez-Goicolea$b Pedro Pablo 702 $aCastro-Valdivia$b Mariano 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910483778303321 996 $aCompanies and entrepreneurs in the history of Spain$92847627 997 $aUNINA
