Part of this is due to the fact that although India resembles the West in some ways, the institutional environment is radically different from that of Euro-American societies. Differences in culture, politics, the economy, and business structure all make it difficult for a Western manager to act accordingly. This book strives to offer Western managers the knowledge they will need to succeed in business in India. 606 $aBusiness etiquette$zIndia 606 $aCorporate culture$zIndia 606 $aNegotiation in business$zIndia 606 $aIndustrial management$xSocial aspects$zIndia 606 $aIntercultural communication$zIndia 606 $aNational characteristics, East Indian 607 $aIndia$xCommerce 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aBusiness etiquette 615 0$aCorporate culture 615 0$aNegotiation in business 615 0$aIndustrial management$xSocial aspects 615 0$aIntercultural communication 615 0$aNational characteristics, East Indian. 676 $a395.5/2/0954 700 $aKumar$b Rajesh$f1954-$0437573 701 $aSethi$b Anand$0923028 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910451094403321 996 $aDoing business in India$92071043 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03247nam 22008655 450 001 9910792126503321 005 20230810131504.0 010 $a1-282-91538-X 010 $a9786612915383 010 $a0-230-10963-2 024 7 $a10.1057/9780230109636 035 $a(CKB)2660000000002757 035 $a(SSID)ssj0001618471 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)16349462 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001618471 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)14922351 035 $a(PQKB)10771526 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000435927 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)12140734 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000435927 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10426384 035 $a(PQKB)11209905 035 $a(DE-He213)978-0-230-10963-6 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC614293 035 $a(EXLCZ)992660000000002757 100 $a20151203d2010 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurnn|008mamaa 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aEncountering the Nigerian State$b[electronic resource] /$fedited by W.

While many recent collections have reheated the old paradigms - of the perils of federalism; corruption; ethnicity etc, our focus here is on encounter , that is, the nuance and complexity of how the state shapes society and vice-versa.Through this, wedepart from the standard state versus society approach that proves so limiting in explaining the African political landscape. 410 0$aAfrica Connects 606 $aAfrica$xPolitics and government 606 $aAnthropology 606 $aEthnology$xAfrica 606 $aCulture 606 $aSociology 606 $aPolitical science 606 $aAfrica$xHistory 606 $aAfrican Politics 606 $aAnthropology 606 $aAfrican Culture 606 $aSociology 606 $aPolitical Science 606 $aAfrican History 615 0$aAfrica$xPolitics and government. 615 0$aAnthropology. 615 0$aEthnology$xAfrica. 615 0$aCulture. 615 0$aSociology. 615 0$aPolitical science. 615 0$aAfrica$xHistory. 615 14$aAfrican Politics. 615 24$aAnthropology. 615 24$aAfrican Culture. 615 24$aSociology. 615 24$aPolitical Science. 615 24$aAfrican History. 676 $a966.905/4 702 $aAdebanwi$b W$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aObadare$b E$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910792126503321 996 $aEncountering the Nigerian State$93756021 997 $aUNINA
