These early 20th-century acquisitions brought with them lists of notable scholarly titles, and from 1912 onward, the company became increasingly concentrated in the academic and scholarly publishing business under the imprint "Kegan Paul Trench Trubner", as well as reference, fiction and mysticism. In 1947, George Routledge and Sons finally merged with Kegan Paul Trench Trubner (the [[Germanic umlaut|umlaut]] had been quietly dropped in the [[World War I|First World War]]) under the name of '''Routledge & Kegan Paul'''.{{sfn|Franklin|1986}} Using [[C. K. Ogden]] and later [[Karl Mannheim]] as advisers the company was soon particularly known for its titles in [[philosophy]], [[psychology]] and the [[social sciences]].
In 1985, Routledge & Kegan Paul joined with [[Associated Book Publishers]] (ABP),{{sfn|Whipp|1992|p=47}} which was later acquired by [[International Thomson]] in 1987. Under Thomson's ownership, Routledge's name and operations were retained, with the additions of backlists from [[Methuen Publishing|Methuen]], [[Tavistock Publications]], Croom Helm and [[Unwin Hyman]].<ref>{{Cite journal| issn = 0000-0019| volume = 243| issue = 20| pages = 16–17| last = Richardson| first = Jean| title = U.K. venture firm to buy Routledge| journal = Publishers Weekly| accessdate = 2022-10-30| date = 1996-05-13| url = http://go.gale.com/ps/i.do?p=LitRC&sw=w&issn=00000019&v=2.1&it=r&id=GALE%7CA18283959&sid=googleScholar&linkaccess=abs| archive-date = 2 June 2024| archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20240602204029/https://go.gale.com/ps/i.do?p=LitRC&sw=w&issn=00000019&v=2.1&it=r&id=GALE%7CA18283959&sid=googleScholar&linkaccess=abs&userGroupName=anon%7E4aef6bab&aty=open-web-entry| url-status = live}}</ref> In 1996, a [[management buyout]] financed by the European [[private equity]] firm [[Cinven]] saw Routledge operating as an independent company once again.
