Download or read book Policy Tasks for Corporate Partnerships Between Big Corporations and SMEs written by Seok-Il Hong and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Western countries, the monopoly of large companies has been deemed as posing a serious problem. The countries, however, have seldom encountered the friction between big corporations and SMEs. The issue has plagued South Korea throughout its economic advance during the past five decades. South Korea has watched its economic advance centered mostly around big corporations, producing concentrations of economic power in their hands. In the course of industrialization with focus on heavy and chemical industries, big corporations have become specialized in assembly, while their small counterparts slid to the roles of parts suppliers/subcontractors. As a result, subcontracting became rampant, along with incidents of unfair trade. Upon the dawn of this century, the friction between big corporations and SMEs began to grow larger in society. In the past, it was a matter of unfair trade between individual big corporations and SMEs. As polarization within the economy grew severe and polarization of big corporations and SMEs was cited as one of the major causes, South Korean society began to approach the matter not as an issue between individual companies, but as an issue affecting the entire national economy. Furthermore, the entire society agrees on the need for corporate partnership by big corporations and SMEs. This study aims to set forth what the government should carry out in which capacity in order to foster a corporate partnership-friendly industrial ecology, which in turn is capable of encouraging two partners of the drive (i.e. big corporations and SMEs) and helping to maximize the effects.

Download or read book Who s Not Working written by and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 2 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Presenting a radically different view of the operations of the labor market, in this 1999 book Professors Pryor and Schaffer explain the growing inequality in wages and how those with the least education are being squeezed out of the labor market. Why have wages in those jobs requiring extra-high cognitive skills risen while all other wages have stagnated or fallen? And why are more university graduates taking high-school jobs? The authors of this volume present data revealing that jobs which require a high educational level are increasing more slowly than those with somewhat lower requirements. However such jobs are increasing faster than those requiring still less formal education. Professors Pryor and Schaffer also show how women are replacing men in jobs which require higher levels of education and, moreover, how those with high cognitive skills are replacing those with lower cognitive skills.

Download or read book Economic Crisis and Corporate Restructuring in Korea written by Stephan Haggard and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2003-02-26 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Asian business conglomerates have clearly been successful agents of growth, mobilizing capital, borrowing technology from abroad and spearheading Asia's exports. However, these firms have long had a number of organisational and financial weaknesses, including heavy reliance on debt, that make them vulnerable to shocks. Nowhere was this more true than in Korea, where the large corporate groups known as chaebol have dominated the economic landscape. This collection of essays by leading political scientists and economists provides a comprehensive look at the chaebol problem in the wake of the Asian financial crisis. The authors consider the historical evolution of the chaebol and their contribution to the onset of economic turmoil in 1997. The book analyses the government's short-run response to corporate and financial distress, and outlines an agenda for longer-term reform of the financial system, corporate governance and the politics of business-government relations.

Download or read book Making Capitalism written by Roger L. Janelli and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 1995-03-01 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This pathbreaking work extends the boundaries of contemporary anthropological research by presenting in one cohesive, meticulously researched work: an original theoretical perspective on the relationships between the cultural, political, and economic dimensions of a large modern business organization; the first anthropological work on South Korean management and its white-collar workers, in a case study of one of South Korea's "big four" conglomerates; and an innovative delineation of how modern business practices are enmeshed in past and present, structure and agency, and local and international systems." "Based largely on the author's nine months of participant-observation in the offices of one of South Korea's largest conglomerates (with annual sales of about $15 billion and approximately 80,000 employees), the book is also enriched by the author's previous fieldwork in rural Korea, where many of the conglomerate's white-collar personnel spent their formative years. These vantage points are used to explore constructions of "traditional" Korean culture and transformations of cultural knowledge prompted by new political-economic conditions, and how both inform practices prevailing in the large conglomerates - and ultimately shape South Korea's capitalism." "The work focuses on South Korea's new middle class. It explains how office workers' identities and often contradictory interests present them with choices between alternative interpretations and actions affecting both themselves and their conglomerates. Much attention is paid to ideological and more coercive means of controlling white-collar employees, to subordinates' strategies of resistance, and to ways in which cultural understandings and moral claims inform the assessment and pursuit of material advantage.
