Our study analyses the ongoing relationship of a small commercial company with its main partner during the period 1847–1864, and examines the formal systems used by the company to monitor and coordinate its partner’s activity and the evolution of inter-firm trust throughout the whole life cycle of this relationship.}, publisher = {Taylor & Francis}, keywords = {inter-organisational relationships}, keywords = {trust}, keywords = {management control systems}, keywords = {risk}, keywords = {trading companies}, keywords = {nineteenth century}, title = {Management control systems, trust and risk in inter-organisational relationships: The case of Francisco González de la Sierra and its partner Rivas y Cantallops (1847–1864)}, doi = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/00076791.2014.930129}, author = {Capelo Bernal, María Dolores and Araujo Pinzón, Pedro and Álvarez-Dardet Espejo, Concha}, }
