Sustainability in Project Management
This book presents a new approach to the issue of project management, showing how it can be approached through the lens of sustainability. The nature of sustainable project management is not only to achieve economic goals, but also environmental and social ones. Considering project management from the perspective of sustainability is very important because sustainable development cannot keep up with the pace and scale of accumulation of ecological and social problems. The natural potential of the Earth is quickly running low. The global equilibrium between the Earth’s ecosystems, which have developed for millions of years, and the human world of production and consumption, becomes disrupte...
Trade, Labour and Sustainable Development
Examining the relationship between trade and labour regulation in light of the pressing need to promote sustainable development, Tonia Novitz interrogates how international legal architecture could be reformed so that no one in the world of work gets left behind. She highlights the dangers of pursuing labour and environmental issues on parallel tracks without recognising how they interact, ultimately arguing for the crafting of the content and application of trade rules through participatory processes, which involve the inclusive representation of all sectors of the labour market and all parts of the world.
L'organizzazione dell'impresa
L'evoluzione delle organizzazioni ha portato al centro dell'attenzione i temi della gestione per processi, della gestione dei progetti, della conoscenza organizzativa e della gestione delle risorse umane.

Per questo si basa, da una parte, su un solido impianto con...
