Diciamoci la verità, l'italiano medio si è accorto che i cinesi potrebbero diventare padroni a casa nostra quando i due blasoni del calcio milanese e nazionale sono passati in mani cinesi. Ma pochi sanno, tranne gli addetti ai lavori, chi sia Zhang Jindong, il nuovo proprietario dell'Inter, o Yonghong Li, il magnate che ha preso il posto di Berlusconi alla guida del Milan. Sempre in pochi hanno capito se l'acquisto della Pirelli sia un vantaggio per noi o per il colosso statale ChemChina.

Este audiolibro arroja luz sobre las múltiples idas y venidas, en las que un alto cargo del Estado pasa a formar parte de una gran empresa, o un empresario pasa a ser un funcionario del Estado. Estos viajes, poco explorados hasta ahora, son un símbolo de la historia reciente de España, cuyo resultado es un Estado progresivamente derrotado.

Da più di sessant'anni è, insieme al Wto e alla Banca mondiale - le altre due organizzazioni nate dagli accordi di Bretton Woods nel 1944 -, un pilastro dell'ordine economico internazionale. Ne sono prova gli interventi messi in atto dal Fondo monetario in molti paesi per fronteggiare la crisi dei mutui subprime, e il sostegno fornito alla Grecia, che nel maggio 2010 ha rischiato una bancarotta dello stato.

Dalla Compagnia delle Indie a Microsoft sono da sempre protagoniste dell'economia mondiale. Spesso di grandissime dimensioni, talvolta di formato tascabile, con una lunga storia nei paesi industrializzati, ma oggi in crescita anche nelle economie emergenti, le multinazionali sono osannate o contestate, in realtà poco conosciute.

Un'economia sommersa che secondo le stime Istat assorbe circa 250 miliardi di euro, ovvero il 17% della ricchezza nazionale, un fenomeno di massa legato anche alle disfunzioni dell'amministrazione pubblica e alla struttura del nostro sistema produttivo, nonché alla cultura e alla storia del nostro paese. Il volume espone tutto quello che si sa su un secolo di evasione fiscale in Italia: chi, come, quanto, perché, e indica i possibili rimedi a questo grave problema economico e sociale.

Sorto nel 1995 per governare e sviluppare il commercio internazionale, considerato un fattore chiave della crescita in tutti i paesi, già nel 1999 il WTO è il principale bersaglio della protesta no global che esplode a Seattle e mette sotto accusa la sua politica di liberalizzazione. Ma come funziona realmente il WTO? Come vengono prese le decisioni al suo interno e qual è il suo ruolo nelle controversie commerciali tra i vari paesi?

La crisi globale pone sfide inedite all'Europa e richiede un convinto rilancio del processo di integrazione. Il volume guarda all'economia europea da una duplice prospettiva: la prima parte ripercorre le principali tappe dell'integrazione e delinea le caratteristiche e il funzionamento del modello economico e sociale europeo; la seconda ricostruisce l'intreccio dei fattori che hanno portato alla grave crisi internazionale e ne valuta l'impatto sul futuro dell'integrazione.

Digitalisierung ist wichtig und alle machen mit. Doch in der Praxis bleiben die Ergebnisse weit hinter den Erwartungen zurück. Widerstände, Unwissenheit, Angst, Politik: Die digitale Transformation scheitert nicht an der Technik, sondern an der Organisation. All das Neue nützt nichts, wenn Hunderte von Mitarbeitenden damit nichts anfangen können. Ömer Atiker zeigt, welches die wirklichen Probleme bei der Digitalisierung sind und wie sie gelöst werden. Er liefert zu Situationen des geschäftlichen Alltags ganz konkrete Maßnahmen, mit denen Führungskräfte ihre Belegschaft in Bewegung bringen.

Die Fronten sind verhärtet: hier die Anhänger des Degrowth, die negative Wachstumsraten für unverzichtbar halten - dort die Mehrheit der Wachstumsgläubigen, die noch immer von zweistelligen Zuwächsen träumt. Radikale Rhetorik und Konzepte scheinen mehr denn je nötig zu sein, um sich Gehör zu verschaffen. Doch gibt es wirklich keine Lösungen dazwischen? Für Jorgen Randers und Graeme Maxton ist es höchste Zeit, Realitäten anzuerkennen und Denkblockaden zu überwinden.

Meet the economic gangster. He's the United Nations diplomat who double-parks his Mercedes on New York City streets at rush hour because the cops can't touch him--he has diplomatic immunity. He's the Chinese smuggler who dodges tariffs by magically transforming frozen chickens into frozen turkeys. The dictator, the warlord, the unscrupulous bureaucrat who bilks the developing world of billions in aid

A century ago, migrants often crossed an ocean and never saw their homelands again. Today, they call - or Skype - home the moment their flight has landed, and that's just the beginning. Thanks to cheap travel and easy communication, immigrants everywhere stay in intimate contact with their native countries, creating powerful cross-border networks. In Borderless Economics, Robert Guest, The Economist's business editor, travels through dozens of countries and 44 American states, observing how these networks create wealth, spread ideas and foster innovation.

Why has the Eurozone ended up with an unemployment rate more than twice that of the United States more than six years after the collapse of Lehman Brothers? Why did the vast majority of low- and middle-income countries suffer a prolonged economic slowdown in the last two decades of the 20th century? What was the role of the International Monetary Fund in these economic failures?

One of the most vexing human rights issues of our time has been how to protect the rights of individuals and communities worldwide in an age of globalization and multinational business. Indeed, from Indonesian sweatshops to oil-based violence in Nigeria, the challenges of regulating harmful corporate practices in some of the world’s most difficult regions long seemed insurmountable. Human rights groups and businesses were locked in a stalemate, unable to find common ground. In 2005, the United Nations appointed John Gerard Ruggie to the modest task of clarifying the main issues.

As China comes into its own as a world economic power, a new, huge consumer class is emerging, hungry for all things Western. In this land where 25 years ago most of the population had never tasted chocolate, five icons of Western business are now slugging it out in a battle royal to see which will become the Emperor of Chocolate in China.

In the early years of Adams Golf, entrepreneur Barney Adams labored in obscurity. He collected six patents for his golf products, manufacturing fine equipment but enjoying no sales. Everything changed for him and his company in 1996, though, when he invented the Tight Lies fairway wood. Working as a custom fitter, his customers repeatedly asked for a club they could play from "long iron" distance, from 180 to 220 yards to the green. Adams knew the technical secret was to lower the club's center of gravity.

Winner of the 2011 Strega Prize, this blend of essay, social criticism, and memoir is a striking portrait of the effects of globalization on Italy’s declining economy. Starting from his family’s textile factory in Prato, Tuscany, Edoardo Nesi examines the recent shifts in Italy’s manufacturing industry. Only one generation ago, Prato was a thriving industrial center that prided itself on craftsmanship and quality. But during the last decade, cheaply made goods - produced overseas or in Italy by poorly paid immigrants - saturated the market, making it impossible for Italian companies to keep up.
