A histo of long and effortless success can be a dreadful handicap, but, if properly handled, it
may become a driving force. When the United States entered just such a glowing period after the end
of the Second World War, it had a market eight times larger than any competitor, giving its industries
unparalleled economies of scale. Its scientists were the world's best; its workers the most skilled.
America and Americans were prosperous beyond the dreams of the Europeans and Asians whose
economies the war had destroyed.
It was inevitable that this primacy should have narrowed as other countries grew richer. Just as
inevitably, the retreat from predominance proved painful. By the mid-1980s Americans had found
themselves at a loss over their fading industrial competitiveness. Some huge American industries, such
as consumer electronics, had shrunk or vanished in the face of forei competition. By 1987 there was
only one American television maker left, Zenith. (Now there is none: Zenith was bought by South
Korea's LG Electronics in July.) Forei-made cars and textiles were sweeping into the domestic
market. America's machine-tool indust was on the ropes. For a while it looked as though the making
of semiconductors, which America had invented and which sat at the heart of the new computer age,
was going to be the next casualty.
All of this caused a crisis of confidence. Americans stopped taking prosperity for granted. They
began to believe that their way of doing business was failing, and that their incomes would therefore
shortly begin to fall as well. The mid-1980s brought one inqui after another into the causes of
America' s industrial decline. Their sometimes sensational findings were filled with warnings about
the growing competition from overseas.
How things have changed! In 1995 the United States can look back on five years of solid growth
while Japan has been struggling. Few Americans attribute this solely to such obvious causes as a
devalued dollar or the turning of the business cycle. Self-doubt has yielded to blind pride. American
industry has changed its structure, has gone on a diet, has learnt to be more quick-witted," according
to Richard Cavanaugh, executive dean of Harvard' s Kennedy School of Government. "It makes me
proud to be an American just to see how our businesses are improving their productivity,"says Stephen
Moore of the Cato Institute, a think-tank in Washington, DC. And William Sahlman of the Harvard
Business School believes that people will look back on this period as "a golden age of business
management in the United States."
