Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book analyses growth at the total economy and industry level from an international perspective, providing unique cross-country comparisons. The authors focus on the EU-25 countries but also include the US, Japan and Korea. The chapters explore growth patterns from a long-run perspective, although greater attention is paid to the period of expansion from 19952007 and the post 2008 period of crisis.

The role played by ICT is expertly emphasized, in particular the different paths followed in the US and the EU.

Download or read book European Business written by European Commission and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication gives a comprehensive picture of the structure, development and characteristics of the European business economy and its different activities. It presents the latest available statistics from a wide selection of statistical sources describing for each activity: production and employment; country specialisation and regional distribution; cost structure, productivity and profitability; the importance of small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs); labour force characteristics; external trade and more. The publication covers 'the business economy', which is the sum of industry, construction and services (NACE Sections C to K). It does not cover agriculture, forestry and fishing, nor the public administration and largely non-market services such as education and health. The business economy is divided into 23 main sections, which are analysed in detail in separate chapters. The first chapter provides a general overview of the EU's business economy, with comparisons across the main sectors. In addition, it provides information of a horizontal nature such as data on research and development, business demography, or the importance of foreign controlled enterprises. Following the accession of Bulgaria and Romania, data for the 27 Member States are now consistently being presented, with the EU-27 total as benchmark. This edition of European business also continues the efforts made in recent years to focus increasingly on official statistics, and to broaden and deepen the analysis as the European statistical system continues to make advances. A particular effort has been made in this edition to include, where available, data at the most detailed activity level (NACE four digit or class level) and to facilitate further comparisons across the different activities of the business economy (chapters and subchapters).

Download or read book The Routledge Companion to European Business written by Gabriele Suder and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-07-18 with total page 481 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: International Business is a well-established research field, in which regionalisation has gained prominence in the last decade. Because Europe is a market that shows specific patterns of highly advanced market integration, European Business is a subject in its own right and with its own research momentum. In particular, firms view Europe as a challenging, mostly – yet not entirely- mature market location that is subject to complexities that help reveal strategic corporate strengths and weaknesses. Europe represents a location that undergoes frequent and rapid change due to its geo-economic and geopolitical position This comprehensive reference volume brings together a global team of contibutors to analyze and overview the key issues, themes and phenomena that affect business in Europe. With interdisciplinary perspectives from key disciplines, the book covers a range of vital themes such as culture, entrepreneurship, identity, human rights and climate change. The selection of authors reflects the international scope of this book, and is drawn from institutions located in 17 countries across Europe. A unique resource, this book covers a region undergoing significant geoeconomic and geopolitical change, and provides a comprehensive guide to research students and scholars of business and the social sciences.

Download or read book Multinational Business Service Firms written by Joanne Roberts and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-10-26 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1998, this influential volume entered the debate on Foreign Direct Investment in the UK and focuses on the role of Multinational Enterprises (MNEs) in the service rather than manufacturing and primary sectors. While the significance of the service industry had been recognised (exceeding 60% of total GDP in some countries at the time of original publication), the role of FDIs has not. Joanne Roberts thus contributed to a woefully under researched field, covering areas including international trade, the organisational theory of the firm and the UK business sector.
