Bamboozled at the Revolution: How Big Media Lost Billions in the Battle for the Internet

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Bamboozled at the Revolution chronicles one of the great business follies of the twentieth century: big media?s bungled attempt to understand and control the Internet. The story begins in 1994, the year most mainstream companies first became aware of the Internet, and ends six years-and many bad decisions-later with the buyout of media giant Time Warner by AOL, a scrappy little company almost no one had heard of at the dawn of the 1990s. Along the way, veteran media reporter John Motavalli provides a terrifically entertaining and frequently shocking snapshot of the uncomfortable marriage that took place between old media empires and new media start-ups as they fumbled after the communication tools of the future. The paperback edition include a new afterword bringing the story of the AOL-TimeWarner merger up to date. [detailed...]

Bamboozled at the Revolution: How Big Media Lost Billions in the Battle for the Internet

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: The 1990s was one of the most dynamic eras in American business history. Technology was advancing at such a rapid pace, with such widespread growth, and with such giddy enthusiasm from investors, that it seemed too good to last. It was. Media insider John Motavalli gives a vivid account from the front lines of the compelling drama that developed in the media industry during this time, as old-world, advertising-driven companies thought they`d found a new world to dominate. But it led to some rather colossal failures. Time Warner`s FSN was a multibillion-dollar interactive cable disaster and its sequel, the Web-based Pathfinder, was even more embarrasing. Disney, Rupert Murdoch`s News Corp, and the New York Times Company also stumbled. These examples are just the tip of the iceberg: this struggle is one of the great business follies of our time and continued until January 2000, when AOL swallowed up Time Warner, a first-of-its-kind marriage of new and old. Fast paced… [detailed...]

Banana Wars-The Price of Free Trade: A Caribbean Perspective

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: In the Caribbean Windward Islands, one in three jobs and half of export earnings depend on bananas. But from the end of 2005, the European Union will give up the last non-tariff measures designed to protect this trade. Looming over the islanders are unemployment, poverty, further emigration, and the almost inevitable switch to growing illegal drugs. Banana Wars tells how the US government, answering the grievances of a single American corporation, forced the World Trade Organization to nullify a European Community commitment to protect small Caribbean banana growers. The international trading system lacks the flexibility needed to give states like the Windward Islands the protection that they need to survive, while powerful supermarket chains insist on ever-lower prices, to the short-term benefit of consumers but the serious detriment of growers. This book calls for new EU arrangements to help the Caribbean banana industry beyond 2005 and for the WTO to give greater… [detailed...]

Banana Wars: The Anatomy of a Trade Dispute

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: In April 2001, the US and EU announced the end of a trade dispute over the sale of bananas into the EU market. The allocation of import licenses had been found to violate World Trade Organization rules and to discriminate against suppliers from Latin America. This book examines the issues surrounding the dispute, in particular: the dependence of Caribbean economies on European markets, the role of the public and private sectors, its relation to political tensions of the EU`s Common Agricultural Policy, domestic political influence in the US, and the role of the WTO and its settlement of trade disputes. Written by leading authorities from the USA, Europe, Central America and the Caribbean, the book provides a fascinating insight into this complex story, and has wide implications for international trade.

Description: `I want to learn how to defend myself from whoever tries to oppress me, whether it`s my husband, my union, or my boss.`-a bananera Women banana workers- bananeras -are waging a powerful revolution by making gender equity central in Latin American labor organizing.

Starting in 1985 with one union in La Lima, Honduras, and expanding domestically through the late 1990s, experienced activists successfully reached out to younger women with a message of empowerment.

Description: Book DescriptionAs the Bechers ? the famous German photographers ? have made us discover the morphology and powerful beauty of 19th and 20th century industrial archeology, the photographs of Sebastian Schutyser reveal a neglected African architectural heritage: village adobe mosques in Mali. His black and white photographs (beautifully reproduced in duotone) emphasize a plastic language now extremely rare: an artistic fusion of architecture and sculpture. Is it architecture with sculptural qualities? Or is it rather architectonical sculpture? We no longer know, our mind and our senses are disconcerted by the cultural exception of this special creative mixture. Yet, at the origin of each of these creations we won?t find a sculptor or an architect: only village craftsmen, master artisans who have updated an ancestral skill of molding raw earth. Indeed, it is not the expression of a bygone popular culture: the majority of these mosques have been built or altered in the… [detailed...]

Description: Book Description The Hispanic Malcolm X. Writer. Activist. Civil rights attorney. Obese, dark-skinned, and angry. Man with a surplus of personality. Man of vision. All the above describe Oscar `Zeta` Acosta. El Paso-born, Acosta became a leading figure in the Chicano rights movement of the 1960s and 1970s, winning landmark decisions in civil rights cases as an attorney. As a tireless writer and activist, he had a profound influence on his contemporaries. He seemed to be everywhere at once, knowing everyone in `el movimiento` and involving himself in many of its key moments. Tumultuous and prone to excess, he is the Samoan in Hunter S. Thompson`s Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. In 1974, after a last phone call to his son, Acosta disappeared in the Mexican state of Mazatlan. Hailed as `a fine, learned homage` (Kirkus), `a kaleidoscopic portrait` (Booklist), and `a game of mirrors` (The Washington Post), Bandido is a veritable tour de force. Through… [detailed...]

Bandwagon Effects in High Technology Industries

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionEconomists use the term `bandwagon effect` to describe the benefit a consumer enjoys as a result of others’ using the same product or service. The history of videocassettes offers a striking example of the power of bandwagon effects. Originally there were two technical standards for videocassettes in the United States: Beta and VHS. Beta was widely regarded to have better picture quality, but VHS could record longer television programs. Eventually the selection of Beta cassettes shrank to zero, leaving consumers no choice but to get on the VHS bandwagon. The most successful bandwagon, apart from telephone service, is the Internet. In this book Jeffrey Rohlfs shows how the dynamics of bandwagons differ from those of conventional products and services. They are difficult to get started and often fail before getting under way. A classic example of a marketing failure is the Picturephone, introduced by the Bell System in the early 1970s. Rohlfs describes… [detailed...]
