Download or read book A Business History of Latin America written by Andrea Lluch and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-11-14 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited volume constitutes the first available comprehensive business history of Latin America available in English. It offers a unique synthesis of the development of capitalism in Latin America that takes into consideration the complexities of each country, while simultaneously understanding broader commonalities. With chapters written by a group of internationally renowned senior scholars with a long trajectory in business historical research, the volume is divided into two major areas. First, the development of capitalism in some of the major economies of the region (Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, and Peru) through the lens of management strategic decisions and entrepreneurial activity. And second, the long-term evolution of factors affecting the region’s particular evolution of capitalism and business systems. They include the rise of environmentally sustainable businesses; the impact of crime on entrepreneurial activity; the evolution of family firms, the changing strategies of multinational corporations in the region; the evolution of business groups; the role of female entrepreneurs; and the challenges for conducting business in a region with poor infrastructure. This insightful collection serves both as a straightforward introduction for those looking for a broad understanding of the region and for those interested in conducting comparative studies between Latin America and other areas of the world. It will be of direct appeal to researchers and advanced students of business and economic history and international business in particular.
Download or read book Evolution of Family Business written by Paloma Fernández Pérez and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2016-02-26 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Family businesses are everywhere, but there is little information regarding their growth and development. This book is one of the few to analyse the identity and evolution of the largest family businesses in Latin America and Spain. With contributions from 20 scholars from 12 different countries, the book compares the relationship of families in business within their national economies, foreign capital, migration, and politics. The authors deny the existence of a ‘Latin type’ of family capitalism in their countries, and highlight diversity, and national and regional differences. This interdisciplinary book will be useful for students and scholars of economics, management, history, sociology, and anthropology. Politicians, family business consultants, family businesses, and international institutions will also benefit from insights within this book.
Download or read book The Palgrave Handbook of Managing Family Business Groups written by Marita Rautiainen and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-11-30 with total page 663 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Family business groups (FBGs) are ubiquitous, influential, and play a major role in national economies. While much of the current research around this topic has so far focused on emerging economies, more knowledge is needed on family business groups in developed economies; specifically, how they innovate, strategize, govern, and grow. Offering a comprehensive and global perspective on family business groups, this Handbook comprises international contributions from leading experts. Split into five sections, it covers strategy and business transformation; innovation strategies; management and governance; and new avenues for research on FBGs including the issues of sustainability and cultural alignment. An important resource for students and researchers of family business, strategy and management, this Handbook signals the emergence of the family business group phenomenon and solidifies research in this evolving area of study.

This book was released on 2013-03 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Los negocios familiares dominaron y dominan la vida empresarial en España, pero apenas sabemos nada sobre el proceso de modernización de su gestión. En los dos últimos siglos estas empresas y grupos de control familiar han tenido que aprender a ir más allá de sus mercados locales y regionales y buscar formas de adaptarse a los retos de tres revoluciones tecnológicas que han cambiado su forma de producir, de relacionarse y de pensar. Los autores de La profesionalización de las empresas familiares (Pablo Díaz Morlán, Miguel A. López-Morell, Ma Mercedes Bernabé Pérez, José Luis García Ruiz, Elena San Román López, Ma Jesús Segovia Vargas, Susana Blanco García, Javier Moreno Lázaro y Paloma Fernández) destacan cómo éstas han sabido conservar sus raíces a la par que han promovido la profesionalización en la gestión.

Download or read book Re mapping World Literature written by Gesine Müller and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2018-03-05 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How can we talk about World Literature if we do not actually examine the world as a whole? Research on World Literature commonly focuses on the dynamics of a western center and a southern periphery, ignoring the fact that numerous literary relationships exist beyond these established constellations of thinking and reading within the Global South. Re-Mapping World Literature suggests a different approach that aims to investigate new navigational tools that extend beyond the known poles and meridians of current literary maps. Using the example of Latin American literatures, this study provides innovative insights into the literary modeling of shared historical experiences, epistemological crosscurrents, and book market processes within the Global South which thus far have received scant attention. The contributions to this volume, from renowned scholars in the fields of World and Latin American literatures, assess travelling aesthetics and genres, processes of translation and circulation of literary works, as well as the complex epistemological entanglements and shared worldviews between Latin America, Africa and Asia. A timely book that embraces highly innovative perspectives, it will be a must-read for all scholars involved in the field of the global dimensions of literature.

This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 473 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Son numerosos los libros y artículos que analizan las claves del éxito de las familias empresarias y grupos familiares que perduran en el tiempo, si bien la gran mayoría de los negocios registrados como empresas desaparecen en dos generaciones. Aunque esos datos pudieran hacer pensar en el fracaso de este tipo de empresas, a través del estudio de los mayores negocios familiares de ocho países de América Latina y España a lo largo de más de un siglo, esta obra pone de manifiesto que las familias empresarias desaparecen de una empresa y surgen en otras continuando con la actividad a lo largo de décadas en un continuo proceso de adaptación, diversificándose en sectores que presentan mayores expectativas de rentabilidad o seguridad, alterando para ello la denominación jurídica de los negocios, el organigrama o los esquemas de gobierno. Con la metodología propia de la historia empresarial que combina archivos públicos y privados, entrevistas con un enfoque interdisciplinar, y con la participación de veintidós especialistas de once países, este libro revela que en América Latina y España son las familias empresarias, a través de empresas independientes o grupos, la clave histórica de la riqueza de los territorios en los que se desarrollan. Esta monografía se acompaña por un portal, accesible a través del sitio web de la Fundación BBVA, en el que se presentan distintos recursos adicionales como un análisis estadístico y gráfico de los datos resultado de esta investigación, además de una base de datos con la información sobre los mayores negocios familiares en los nueve países analizados para el año 2010. El conjunto de esta obra proporciona una herramienta de utilidad para un público lector del ámbito académico, así como para consultores y gestores económicos.
