Download or read book Japanese Participation in British Industry written by John Dunning and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2010-11-01 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Japanese participation in British industry has increased greatly in recent years. While the new investment is welcomed for the jobs it helps create and the injection of new technology and managerial techniques, many people are fearful lest this increased participation should lead to loss of control of British industry by British nationals and adversely affect British competitors and their struggle for global markets. These concerns are made worse by lack of knowledge about just how extensive Japanese managerial participation in British industry is and about how Japanese practices differ. This book, based on extensive original research, answers these and related questions. It is the first detailed study of the extent of Japanese participation in British industry, and of its economic impact in a number of key areas.

Download or read book Japanese Manufacturing Investment in Europe written by Roger Strange and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2002-09-11 with total page 574 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Japanese manufacturing investment in the European Community has grown dramatically over the last twenty years. At first, instances of investment were few, concentrated in a small number of industrial sectors. But since the mid-1980's there has been a surge of investment in a much wider range of industries. This volume details the growth of Japanese manufacturing investment in Europe in fourteen industrial sectors. The impact of Japanese competition and direct investment on European industries is considered in the context of the emergence of the three major trading blocs: the United States, Japan and the EC. Roger Strange concludes by making important policy recommendations, and arguing for the need for a new theoretical framework for assessing the political economy of foreign direct investment.

Download or read book Japanese Inward Investment in UK Car Manufacturing written by Young-Chan Kim and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-02-06 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This title was first published in 2002. This compelling text provides fresh insight into an area that is often touched upon, but rarely examined in any great detail - the relationship between Multinational Enterprises (MNEs) and their host governments. Taking Japanese Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) strategy, arguably the model of FDI, Young-Chan Kim takes a revealing look at why the United Kingdom (UK) has dominated among the EU member states for FDI destination, while ironically losing its nationalized car manufacturers. Scholars of business history, international business and business economics will find this work invaluable.
Download or read book British Factory Japanese Factory written by Ronald Dore and published by . This book was released on 2013-10-14 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Japanese way of work is notoriously ¿different¿. But is it Japan or Britain which is the odd man out? When originally published this was the first book to explore the real differences, through a point-by-point comparison of two Japanese factories with two British ones making similar products. In the first half of the book this comparison is pursued in systematic detail and clear illustration of the attitudes and assumptions which underlie what the author calls the ¿market-oriented¿ system of Britain and the ¿organization-oriented¿ system of Japan. One chapter shows how the employment institutions of the two countries fit into their political, family and educational institutions ¿ an exercise in functionalist sociology which dominates t he later chapters and makes a major contribution to the discussion of development and of the ¿convergence¿ of different systems.

Download or read book Engineers in Japan and Britain written by Kevin McCormick and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-02-01 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Engineers are a key occupational group in the transformation of the modern world. Contrasts between Japans economic miracle and Britains relative economic decline have often been linked to differences in education, training and employment of engineers. Yet, such views have often rested on little more than colourful anecdotes and selective statistics. Using careful and systematic comparisons, Kevin McCormick locates the differences between rhetoric and reality to dismiss both the inflated claims of the 1980s and the excessive detraction of the 1990s with Japans prolonged recession.
