Inequality, Geography and Global Value Chains
This contributed volume provides theoretical and empirical insights into a variety of contemporary issues about inequality, geography, and global value chains in today’s world, where global disruptions are prevalent, globalization is being transformed, and multinational enterprises (MNEs) are under pressure to promote sustainability. Many challenges and tensions created by growing inequality within and between countries, cities, and individuals, coupled with recent disruptions in the global economy, beg important questions regarding the role of MNEs. A valuable resource for scholars and students in international business, the book provides a richer understanding of how MNE activities are being affected by the complex dynamics of the modern global business environment and discusses what strategies they need to implement in order to adapt to a changing world, while accounting for the interests of a broader range of stakeholders.
Contemporary Issues in International Business
The ACADEMY OF INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS (UK and Ireland Chapter) Published in association with the UK and Ireland Chapter of the Academy of International Business. This brand new edited collection addresses the growing uncertainty and socio-economic challenges of globalisation and its profound implications for the strategies and operations of multinational enterprises (MNEs). Responding to the new balance in international business, the authors offer valuable insights into the co-evolutionary processes involved in headquarters-subsidiary relationships, the need for novel strategies by MNEs to retain competitive advantage, improve performance and contribute to the global economy.
Spatial Economics Volume II
Space is a crucial variable in any economic activity. Spatial Economics is the branch of economics that explicitly aims to incorporate the space dimension in the analysis of economic phenomena. From its beginning in the last century, Spatial Economics has contributed to the understanding of the economy by developing plenty of theoretical models as well as econometric techniques having the “space” as a core dimension of the analysis. This edited volume addresses the complex issue of Spatial Economics from an applied point of view. This volume is part of a more complex project including another edited volume (Spatial Economics Volume I: Theory) collecting original papers which address Spatial Economics from a theoretical perspective.

Startups and Robots
MCC Centre for Next Technological Futures Studies on Innovation, Technologies and Regions, Volume 1 As cyberpunk writer William Gibson famously said, “The future is already here—it’s just not evenly distributed.” This ironic statement is particularly relevant when we look at the map of innovation and entrepreneurial ecosystems in Europe, where we can easily see deep regional imbalances. But while the future of technology is nearly impossible to predict, it could be discovered by those companies—the startups whose basic working method is trial and error. In addition, the current deafening hype around artificial intelligence is also reigniting the debate about robots and their impact...

Brigata Katiuscia
Piantano una croce, a Reggio Emilia, sulle sponde del canale Ariolo, in memoria di un medico giustiziato da ignoti partigiani venti giorni dopo la Liberazione. La Procura ha aperto un fascicolo ma Corrado Grisendi, approdato al Corriere di Reggio, questa città non la conosce e non conosce il veleno che ancora intossica la rilettura della Resistenza. Dietro quella croce c’è una storia lunga e sofferta, che affonda nella guerra e nel cuore dei protagonisti. Tre di loro sono ancora vivi. Sono loro le persone alle quali aggrapparsi per cercare la verità.

La causa di servizio: novità legislative, giudizio medico legale e procedure
Questo testo nasce per illustrare l’evoluzione normativa, le procedure, le questioni medico-legali in tema di causa di servizio. Nonostante il suo ambito di applicazione sia stato notevolmente ridimensionato, l’argomento richiede ancora approfondimenti e discussione in considerazione della applicabilità della disciplina ai Corpi Militari e di Polizia e del corposo contenzioso tutt’ora esistente. Il testo è suddiviso in sezioni: dopo un excursus normativo e l’esame dettagliato dei più rilevanti provvedimenti di legge, si passa ad illustrare le procedure. Conclude il testo una raccolta di domande frequenti, utili ad orientare il cittadino. Gli Autori, infine, contribuiscono al dibattito dottrinario, segnalando la necessità di aggiornare e snellire la normativa esistente, avvicinandola sempre più alla Assicurazione Obbligatoria gestita dall’INAIL.
Shalòm, amico!
Questa eccezionale biografia, scritta dopo l'assassinio di Rabin da prestigiosi giornalisti israeliani di lingua inglese che hanno seguito da vicino e per molti anni la sua duplice carriera di soldato e di statista, esamina a fondo i vari aspetti di questa carriera ma non trascura neppure il lato privato della vita di Rabin, finora assai poco conosciuto. Come soldato, Rabin si batté per Gerusalemme nella guerra di Indipendenza del 1948, in cui gli israeliani non riuscirono a conquistare la Città Vecchia. Diciannove anni dopo, nella guerra dei Sei Giorni, fu con un senso di intima rivalsa che Rabin, da capo di stato maggiore, entrò nella Città Vecchia. Ma fu proprio quella spettacolare vi...
