Title
'Corporate' Strategy and Locational Decision-Making: The Duke-Price Alcoa Merger, 1925
Abstract
The aluminum industry in Quebec's Saguenay region was the product of investment decisions made by multinational (American) enterprises. It grew from the efforts of James B. Duke (1856-1925) and his Duke-Price Power Company and Arthur V. Davis (1867-1962) of Alcoa to control the hydro-electric power and aluminum production in the region. The author argues that little consideration was given to local socio-economic conditions.
