This book is about financial, economic, educational, and technological determinants of environmental sustainability from a global perspective. This book analyzes different financial, economic, educational, and technological indicators on environment and sustainable development in sample of different country groups, and discusses the findings based on the related theoretical and empirical literature.

Companies face a variety of risks resulting from cost reduction strategies, rationalization measures, global sourcing, and outsourcing activities.

Effizienz und Effektivität sind wesentliche Garanten, um im Wirtschaftsgeschehen langfristig überleben zu können. Ein dynamisches Umfeld verlangt dabei die Abkehr von einer einseitig strategischen hin zu einer beidseitig strategischen Ausrichtung. Im SCM-Kontext erfolgt dies in Form der Adaption eines lean-agilen Supply Chain-Designs. Sandra Meta Tandler untersucht die Unsicherheitsfaktoren, die diesen Supply Chain-Typ charakterisieren und entwickelt ein Konzept zur Erhöhung der Versorgungssicherheit. Es werden u.a. Bezüge zu institutionellen, strategischen und zu informationsökonomischen Ansätzen sowie zur Ambidexteritätsforschung hergestellt.
