Astute Competition - Peter Johnson - Bog - Emerald Publishing Limited - Plusbog.dk

Astute Competition - Peter Johnson - Bog - Emerald Publishing Limited - Plusbog.dk

This book is embedded in practical tools which proposes a fourth field of economics in addition to macro, micro and industrial organisation economics (IO); namely what may be called the economics of diversity. This book asserts that businesses are as individual as people. All have unique identities, what may be called genomes. As such economic diversity is the norm, rather than the economics of commodities. Contemporary economics deals very effectively with commodities in situations of perfect competition. It also makes some useful insights into imperfect competition and monopoly. The first half of the book expands the conceptual underpinnings of the economics of diversity (ecosystems, business models, advantage, rents and valuation of resources); the second half demonstrates how these methods can be practically applied through tools and techniques to deal with questions of business development, corporate strategy, mergers and acquisitions, and start-ups.

Worldviews and Values in Higher Education - - Bog - Emerald Publishing Limited - Plusbog.dk

Worldviews and Values in Higher Education - - Bog - Emerald Publishing Limited - Plusbog.dk

Launching the Global Perspectives on Higher Education Development series, editors Madasu Bhaskara Rao, Abhilasha Singh and Pulaparthi Mallika Rao introduce the concept of values and the role they play in the emerging university of the twenty-first century. How do universities'' missions, visions, policies, and strategies shape their responses to a world that is swiftly changing due to increased globalisation, demand, competition, and innovation? Understanding that educational stakeholders must comprehend the nature of societal culture and communal values and the role they play in shaping, often implicitly, a university’s ethos and traditions, contributors explore how values operate at an institutional level. How do they impact micro-level practises, such as pedagogical strategies, academic achievement, curriculum development, and evaluation? Providing a much-needed global perspective-based analysis of the issue of educational values, this first volume on Worldviews and Values in Higher Education examines how higher education cultures are embedded within and heavily influenced by national cultures, norms, and structures through the lenses of Teaching, Learning, Curricula, and Assessment.

Informal Manufacturing and Environmental Sustainability - - Bog - Emerald Publishing Limited - Plusbog.dk

Informal Manufacturing and Environmental Sustainability - - Bog - Emerald Publishing Limited - Plusbog.dk

The informal manufacturing sector, characterized by activities such as handicrafts, cottage industries, micro-enterprises, and small-scale industries, contributes significantly to local economies. It provides livelihoods for millions, representing a substantial portion of the global workforce and GDP. Despite its economic importance, this sector often operates outside the formal regulatory framework and thus faces unique challenges, especially in terms of environmental sustainability. Informal Manufacturing and Environmental Sustainability is a timely and significant contribution to the understanding of the informal manufacturing sector, a crucial yet often overlooked component of the global economy. The chapters emerge against the backdrop of a rapidly evolving global landscape, where the informal sector plays a pivotal role in employment, income generation, and economic development, particularly in developing and emerging countries. This comprehensive, multidisciplinary analysis draws on theories and empirical perspectives from economics, Environmental Studies, management, sociology, and engineering, among others, making it a valuable resource for a broad audience. It is an indispensable resource for policymakers, researchers, practitioners, and students interested in the intersection of informal manufacturing, environmental sustainability, and global economic dynamics.

Market Revolution in Latin America - - Bog - Emerald Publishing Limited - Plusbog.dk

Market Revolution in Latin America - - Bog - Emerald Publishing Limited - Plusbog.dk

Recently there has been an explosive growth of interest in Latin American markets, above and beyond Mexico. Over the years, business executives and academics from the industrialized world seldom paid serious attention to South America for its market potential. The ratification in 1994 of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) among the United States, Canada, and Mexico awakened them to look to the south of the US border. Then exactly one year later, on January 1, 1995, MERCOSUR (Mercado Comun del Sur) went into effect among the four countries in the Southern Cone region of South America - Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay, and Uruguay. Subsequently, in June 1996, Chile and Bolivia agreed to join MERCOSUR, extending the frontiers of the South American trading bloc. Chile''s participation took effect on October 1 1996, and Bolivia''s formal association with MERCOSUR began on January 1, 1997. Indeed, MERCOSUR''s goal is to incorporate all South American countries by 2005 before linking up with NAFTA. This book offers in-depth analysis of trade and liberalization movements in Latin America, examines managerial issues related to collaborating with Latin American companies, and explores macro- and micro-financial implications of investing in Latin American countries.

The Evolution of Consumption - - Bog - Emerald Publishing Limited - Plusbog.dk

The Evolution of Consumption - - Bog - Emerald Publishing Limited - Plusbog.dk

The theory of consumer choice fills the opening chapters of any micro-economic textbook. Yet, surprisingly, this position of privilege has not translated into a flourishing of economic research that is comparable to what has happened in other branches of economic reasoning. Starting with Menger, the Austrian economic tradition has always shifted the focus of attention from the problem of equilibrium to that of social order, to the evolution of norms, institutions and practices that favor social cooperation and coordination. Within this tradition competition and markets are not viewed as states, but as processes in which change and errors occur and efficiency is reached but also easily lost. The real economic problem becomes a problem of knowledge how it is discovered, how it is transmitted. Consumer''s interactions and choices and actual consumption practices play an important role in these evolving forms of sociality. And it is within this framework that allows for experimentation and learning, that they should be studied. This title is part of the "Advances in Austrian Economics" series. It contains a collection of high-level papers on the evolution of consumption.
