2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: The most comprehensive and up-to-date analysis of the successes and failures of twenty-seven countries post-communism transformation. Looking at life after the fall of the Berlin wall in 1989, the book examines and contrasts why some countries have virtually completed their transformation to a liberal polity and economy, while others lag behind. Those that followed a strategy of early and steady reforms on economic, political, institutional and social dimensions have exhibited impressive results in economic performance, attracting foreign direct investment, dealing with the social costs of the transformation and establishing a liberal democracy. Unlike those that have moved gradually, with some countries in a frozen transition after being captured by powerful oligarch groups who have drained considerable state assets. [detailed...]

Description: The promise of upward mobility ? the notion that everyone has the chance to get ahead ? is one of this country`s most cherished ideals, a hallmark of the American Dream. But in today`s volatile labor market, the tradition of upward mobility forall may be a thing of the past. In a competitive world of deregulated markets and demanding shareholders, many firms that once offered the opportunity for advancement to workers have remade themselves as leaner enterprises with more flexible work forces.Divergent Paths examines the prospects for upward mobility of workers in this changed economic landscape. Based on an innovative comparison of the fortunes of two generations of young, white men over the course of their careers, Divergent Paths documentsthe divide between the upwardly mobile and the growing numbers of workers caught in the low-wage trap. The first generation entered the labor market in the late 1960s, a time of prosperity and stability in the U.S. labor market,… [detailed...]

Divergent Paths: How Culture and Institutions Have Shaped North American Growth

Publisher: —
Description: Why are some countries without an apparent abundance of natural resources, such as Japan, economic success stories, while other languish in the doldrums of slow growth. In this comprehensive look at North American economic history, Marc Egnal argues thatculture and institutions play an integral role in determining economic outcome. He focuses his examination on the eight colonies of the North, five colonies of the South (which together made up the original thirteen states), and French Canada. Using census data, diaries, travelers` accounts, and current scholarship, Egnal systematically explores how institutions (such as slavery in the South and the seigneurial system in French Canada) and cultural arenas (such as religion, literacy, entrepreneurial spirit, and intellectual activity) influenced development. He seeks to answer why three societies with similar standards of living in 1750 became so dissimilar in development. By the mid-nineteenth century, the northern states had surged… [detailed...]

Diversification, Refocusing, and Economic Performance

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: During the 1980s a dramatic change in the evolution of the modern corporation took place. The phenomenon, which has been labelled `refocusing,` `de-diversifying,` `de-conglomerating,` or simply `getting back to basics,` has changed the terrain of American business. Diversification, Refocusing, and Economic Performance empirically examines the causes and consequences of this phenomenon from a corporate strategy perspective, uncovering the full scope and effects of corporate refocusing, its strategic logic, and the resultant managerial implications. Two key findings are that every firm has its own limit for diversification, beyond which profits will decline, and that there are certain similarities among those companies who choose to refocus. Starting right after the Second World War, many companies diversified widely, primarily in areas unrelated to their core businesses. In the 1980s, however, as corporate acquisitions and hostile takeovers ran rampant, this trend… [detailed...]

Description: Book DescriptionWhat is the role of the contemporary artist in a reality that interprets cultures as conflicting parties and Europe as a closed space? How does his identity develop in relation to European cultures and those that exist elsewhere in the world? Does there exist an acceptable comparative footing that permits otherwise explosive diversities to engage in dialogue with each other? These questions were the starting point for an international forum on the deepest cultural roots of European thought. Hosted in Como in 2004 by the Antonio Ratti Foundation, the forum welcomed renowned intellectuals, curators, and critics who posed crucial questions about the implications and future prospects of creativity. Presented here are the panels and discussions that arose from the forum on an historically and traditionally divided multi-identity Europe, which is now attempting to unite politically and economically.

Diversity Management and Corporate Communication: The Challenges of Finnish Communication Executives in Multinational Corporations

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: The importance of cultural diversity in the corporate communication context has been widely recognized. However, international and intercultural business or PR related literature does seldom focus on this particular subject.Multinational organizations create infrastructures that require people to communicate with geographically dispersed and culturally diverse others. Corporate culture and particular sub-cultures affect this process. Moreover, different national laws and culture-related values create pressures and consequently communication executives face multiple challenges. Thus, the purpose of my research was to identify critical success factors related to cultural diversity in corporate communication management. I wish that especially the critical incidents included in my book are of benefit to the PR and communications students and practitioners alike. These real life experiences of eight corporate communication executives in Finland-originated multinational corporations give a… [detailed...]
