Titre(s) : Entrepreneurship in the global economy [Texte électronique] : engine for economic growth / Henry Kressel, Thomas V. Lento
Publication : Cambridge, UK : Cambridge University Press, 2012, cop. 2012
Description matérielle : 1 online resource (xii, 266 pages)
Note(s) : "Entrepreneurs have long been drivers of innovation in developed countries. They start
companies and create new industries that keep economies strong and prosperous. Today,
however, in developing nations such as China, state-controlled economies are building
robust industries at stunning speed and siphoning off jobs from the West. How can
entrepreneurs function in the face of this challenge? Can they continue to create
economic value in a globalized business environment? This book addresses the crucial
issue of state planning vs. free enterprise and examines specific problems surrounding
entrepreneurship in the global economy through nine case histories of entrepreneurial
companies. It also looks at how and why government gets involved in economic growth
and how entrepreneurs contribute to economic value. Based on this analysis, the authors
argue that companies can succeed, even in controlled economies, by understanding the
customs and policies of countries where they do business"--
