Geopolitical Uncertainty and International Business
In this insightful book, Bernadette Andreosso-OÕCallaghan and Daniel Rajmil bring together a diverse range of experts to explore how the uncertainties of the geopolitical and geo-economic sphere are being dealt with in international business. They question the suitability of existing policy and institutional responses, and advocate for a novel approach to the delineation of our future world.
Asia-Europe Industrial Connectivity in Times of Crisis
The main objective of this book is to offer an overview and a critical assessment of current connectivity issues in Asia and Europe, seen from an industrial perspective. Critical insights into the contemporary debate on connectivity during times of crisis, which has led to significant economic and social disruptions, are offered throughout the book. European and Asian countries seek to "bounce forward" and not "bounce back" as they navigate the complex economic recovery process. Innovation and investment emerge as critical players to help an economic recovery that shifts towards a more resilient and environmentally friendly approach, to ensure that the world economies stay connected. The global health crisis has revealed that, more than ever before, ubiquitous connectivity, underpinned by pioneering innovation, is a must. As such, governments worldwide need to ensure that businesses and societies emerge stronger and more resilient from existing and emerging crises by laying solid foundations that help to circumnavigate future disruptions of a global magnitude.
Sustainable Development and Energy Transition in Europe and Asia
Asian and European countries have adopted different approaches to the conflicting priorities of economic growth and low carbon emissions. In this volume – based on the revised versions of papers presented at the 24th International Euro-Asia Research Conference held in 2019 – the contrasts between the schools of thought of each continent are explored thoroughly. Ranging from topics as diverse as city logistics, shareholder value and management practices, the EU-Japan Economic Partnership Agreement, Chinas geopolitical insights, sustainable agricultural development in India and the empowerment of women in Vietnam via microfinance, this book addresses sustainable development policies in China and Southeast Asia from many different perspectives.

Electrosound
Da Cage ai Pink Floyd, da Schaeffer e i suoi eredi ai Soft Machine, da Edgar Varèse a Iannis Xenakis, dai compositori acusmatici ai DJ contemporanei, la ricerca elettroacustica ed elettronica ha vissuto e continua a vivere una felicissima stagione in ogni parte del globo; una stagione che è il momento di ricostruire in modo più ampio e, laddove possibile, interpretare, non solo all’interno dei confini della storia della musica.
Global Competitive Strategies in the New World Economy
Introductory comments by Mirza (international business, U. of Bradford, UK) substantiate the suspicion that "globalization" and "regionalization" are indeed ambiguous concepts. In their thrust toward a general theory of gravity to explain this relationship in trade between countries, 29 representatives of academia and transnational corporations (TNCs) address facets of the new global economy: foreign direct investment, other international flows, and the role of governments and TNCs. Beyond a three chapter overview, 16 papers address regionalism in Europe, North America, and Asia. The final piece on integration strategies asks: "MNCs: From multidomestic to global and transnational firms?" Includes 20 figures, 20 tables, and maps of growth zones.

Semiocapitalismo contra el clima
Semiocapitalismo contra el clima. Por una urgente e imprescindible movilización social analiza las repercusiones que la nueva fase capitalista, el semiocapitalismo, está generando en la presente crisis climática y medioambiental. De allí emerge la siguiente constatación: solo mediante la erradicación del modo de vida característico del semiocapitalismo es como será posible combatir desde su raíz esta emergencia. La tarea pendiente consiste en lo siguiente: generar un estado de conciencia colectiva que asuma la relación orgánica existente entre la presente fase semiocapitalista del sistema y la emergencia climática y medioambiental que padecemos; y poner en marcha un movimiento ciudadano que, partiendo de esa convicción e incidiendo en las tendencias que apuntan en la actualidad más allá del vigente sistema, abra la perspectiva de una organización colectiva de índole poscapitalista que las circunstancias presentes comienzan a hacer posible. Ello resulta posible porque, como se desarrolla y justifica en esta obra, la emergencia climática y medioambiental actual constituye el punto débil del vigente sistema semiocapitalista.
