In the process of transitioning to the New Normal model of society and economy, business models, development patterns, and structural transformations have started to become major instruments in creating the new reality.

It also provides some holistic approaches regarding business models, development patterns, and transformations in the New Normal paradigm. Covering key topics such as globalization, business process modeling, and resource economics, this premier reference source is ideal for business owners, managers, government officials, policymakers, industry professionals, researchers, academicians, scholars, practitioners, instructors, and students.

The analysis of agricultural policy and rural development in conjunction to entrepreneurship in terms of production may represent a further step in understanding the role and importance of diversifying the rural potentials in contemporary economies. The Handbook of Research on Agricultural Policy, Rural Development, and Entrepreneurship in Contemporary Economies is an essential publication of academic research that examines agricultural policy and its impact on shaping future resilient economy in rural areas and identifies green business models and new business patterns in rural communities. Covering a range of topics such as entrepreneurship, product management, and marketing, this book is ideal for researchers, policymakers, academicians, economists, agriculture professionals, rural developers, business investors, and students.

This book is a pivotal publication that seeks to improve food security in the conditions of escalating protectionism in global agricultural trade.

Over the decades, food security concerns have been emerging, along with the growth of the world p...
This book analyses the multidimensional condition of the Romanian industrial landscape, which played host to a multitude of demo-economic, financial, trade, and trans- and inter-sectoral development practices before the intense period of European deindustrialisation. The authors stress the need to recognise the economic importance of industry and renewed investment in infrastructure, tracing its impact on GDP, growth and labour productivity. With a focus on R&D, technological innovations and government funding, this volume highlights a strategy for the reindustrialisation, with consistent enablers, of Romania that can also be applied to other EU countries to ensure positive economic development in the context of new European and international policies.
