Big Business and the State: Historical Transitions and Corporate Transformation, 1880S-1990s (Suny Series in the Sociology of Work and Organizations)

Harland N. Prechel


Big Business and the State: Historical Transitions and Corporate Transformation, 1880S-1990s (Suny Series in the Sociology of Work and Organizations) Harland N. Prechel Examines the evolution of corporate form and managerial process from the 1880s to the 1990s, detailing how corporations influenced government to affect changes in response to economic transitions. In Big Business and the State Harland Prechel develops a conceptual framework that contrasts with prevailing definitions of the corporation. His analysis shows that corporate property rights and the legal basis of ownership are crucial to understanding corporate behavior. The book examines how historical transitions affected the three most significant corporate transformations in the last 110 years (1880s-1900s, 1920s-1930s, 1980s-1990s). During each period, in response to economic crisis, big business engaged in political behavior to pressure state managers to realign the institutional arrangements in which corporations were embedded. The historical multicausal method shows that economic crisis, managerial inefficiencies, dependence on external capital markets, and the political... книги, книжный магазин, интернет-магазин Examines the evolution of corporate form and managerial process from the 1880s to the 1990s, detailing how corporations influenced government to affect changes in response to economic transitions.

Life on the Line in Contemporary Manufacturing: The Workplace Experience of Lean Production and the "Japanese" Model

Rick Delbridge


Life on the Line in Contemporary Manufacturing: The Workplace Experience of Lean Production and the Much is stated and written about the new world of work, but how much do we know about the contemporary workplace? What influence have Japanese management techniques had on the way work is organized? Have the systems and mechanisms of control changed radically in recent years, or are they much the same as they have always been? Rick Delbridge sought an answer to these questions at first hand by working on the shopfloor in a Japanese consumer electronics transplant and a European automotive components supplier in order to witness and experience life on the line in contemporary manufacturing. Not only does his book offer rich empirical data on the lived reality of work and a management practice that may share little in common with that found in the textbooks; he also raises a number of important issues about the best ways to understand the complex and changing nature of work....

Adjustment and Growth in the European Monetary Union

Francisco S. Torres, Francesco Giavazzi


Adjustment and Growth in the European Monetary Union Francisco S. Torres, Francesco Giavazzi This volume analyzes the European Community's transition to economic and monetary union (EMU) in the light of the agreements reached at Maastricht last year. It derives from a conference held by the CEPR and the Bank of Portugal, and includes among its contributors a number of noted academic commentators on European integration. The issues addressed in the volume include: the relationship between a common currency and inflation convergence; the effects of monetary unification on Europe's increasingly integrated financial markets and fiscal systems; and EMU's implications for the EC's long-term growth. книги, книжный магазин, интернет-магазин This volume analyzes the European Community's transition to economic and monetary union (EMU) in the light of the agreements reached at Maastricht last year.

Financial Privacy & Electronic Commerce: Who's in My Business

Benjamin, Iii, Dr. Robinson


Financial Privacy & Electronic Commerce: Who's in My Business Benjamin, Iii, Dr. Robinson The financial services sector has had a respectable track record in the protection of consumer privacy. However, business practices, industry consolidation, electronic commerce and economic trends have raised consumer privacy as a key issue in the financial services sector. Improvements in the rapid transfer of information provide a new medium for the purchase of goods and services, that is, the medium of electronic commerce. The European Union has forced the issue with the Data Protection Directive. As a result, the United States has had to debate the lack of regulation or standards governing the new medium of electronic commerce. The debate could hinder any advance by society to engage in new technology. Because of increased government attention through regulatory and legislative action, corporations are developing self-regulatory initiatives to create industry standards for electronic commerce. Consumer privacy deals with how and what types of information are collected and how... книги, книжный магазин, интернет-магазин The financial services sector has had a respectable track record in the protection of consumer privacy.

Engineered in Japan: Japanese Technology-Management Practices (Japan Business and Economics)

Jeffrey K. Liker, John E. Ettlie, John C. Campbell


Engineered in Japan: Japanese Technology-Management Practices (Japan Business and Economics) Jeffrey K. Liker, John E. Ettlie, John C. Campbell Many Japanese companies have developed fundamental technological and manufacturing strengths. These are generally not in the form of new hard technologies that no one else has, but rather management and human resource practices that enable the company tolearn, evolve, and improve. This edited collection identifies technology management practices that have become a major source of competitive advantage for excellent Japanese companies. The book documents best practices from such companies as Toyota, Hitachi, Toshiba, and Nippondenso, and discusses how these technology management practices can be usefully adopted in other cultural contexts. Each chapter is based on original research by a noted scholar in the field. The book covers the technology life cycle including applied R&D, product-process development, manufacturing methods and management, and technology deployment and organizational learning. Authors all delve below the surface of Japanese management approaches by looking at... книги, книжный магазин, интернет-магазин Many Japanese companies have developed fundamental technological and manufacturing strengths.
