Students of trends, policymakers, entrepreneurs, academics, journalists and anyone eager for a glimpse into the next decades, will find this report, with colored graphs, essential reading.

Book The Competitiveness Challenge

Download or read book The Competitiveness Challenge written by United Nations Conference on Trade and Development and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study looks at how the developing countries are facing the challenges of competitiveness and globalisation. Drawing the literature and on industry surveys in ten countries, it traces the role that foreign direct investment (FDI) has played in developing the garment, colour television receiver and automobile industries of Argentina, Brazil, Costa Rica, the Dominican Republic, Malaysia, Mexico, Morocco and Thailand. It also compares the role that FDI has played in Chile and Zimbabwe as these countries developed their natural resources based industries. The analysis is based on an examination of three economic levels: the micro-level of individual firms; the meso-level of the industrial sector and the macro-level of the policies adopted by developing countries. The findings illustrate the vulnerability of the industries under review and the difficulties that countries have faced in becoming competitive. However, where governments have had policies in place to anchor international trade and investment in their domestic economies, globalisation has opened an avenue to competitiveness and economic development.

Book New Frontiers of the Automobile Industry

Download or read book New Frontiers of the Automobile Industry written by Alex Covarrubias V. and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-11-28 with total page 516 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Analysing developments in digital technologies and institutional changes, this book provides an overview of the current frenetic state of transformation within the global automobile industry. An ongoing transition brought about by the relocation of marketing, design and production centres to emerging economies, and experimentation with new mobility systems such as electrical, autonomous vehicles, this process poses the question as to how original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and newcomers can remain competitive and ensure sustainability. With contributions from specialists in the automobile sector, this collection examines the shifts in power and geographical location occurring in the industry, and outlines the key role that public policy has in generating innovation in entrepreneurial states. Offering useful insights into the challenges facing emerging economies in their attempts to grow within the automobile industry, this book will provide valuable reading for those researching internationalization and emerging markets, business strategy and more specifically, the automotive industry.

Book Labour and the Challenges of Globalization

Download or read book Labour and the Challenges of Globalization written by Andreas Bieler and published by Pluto Press (UK). This book was released on 2008-02-20 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book critically examines the responses of the working classes of the world to the challenges posed by the neoliberal restructuring of the global economy. Neoliberal globalisation, the book argues, has created new forms of polarisation in the world. A renewal of working class internationalism must address the situation of both the more privileged segments of the working class and the more impoverished ones. The study identifies new or renewed labour responses among formalised core workers as well as those on the periphery, including street-traders, homeworkers and other 'informal sector' workers. The book contains ten country studies, including India, China, South Korea, Japan, Germany, Sweden, Canada, South Africa, Argentina and Brazil. It argues that workers and trade unions, through intensive collaboration with other social forces across the world, can challenge the logic of neoliberal globalization.
