The degree of worldwide economic integration is unprecedented, and rising globalization has lifted living standards and reduced poverty. Foreign markets and new technologies continue to present opportunities for entrepreneurs and corporations. Still, economic shocks can spread across the world in minutes, impacting billions of lives. Citizens are understandably anxious in this age of macroeconomic turbulence and overextended governments. Modern economics offers a powerful framework for understanding globalization, international trade, and economic growth. Many managers possess years of hands-on experience dealing with business cycles and foreign competitive pressures, yet these leaders may not have a solid grounding in economic concepts that shed light on the forces of globalization. This book explains economics in everyday language, using little or no math, giving businesspersons better tools to interpret current events as well as long-term economic and political developments. 410 0$a2013 digital library. 410 0$aEconomics and finance collection.$x2163-7628. 606 $aInternational economic relations 606 $aGlobalization 608 $aElectronic books. 610 $aeconomics 610 $ahuman capital 610 $afinancial crisis 610 $amacroeconomics 610 $acomparative advantage 610 $aabsolute advantage 610 $aemerging economy 610 $ainternational trade 610 $abusiness strategy 610 $aeconomic growth 610 $aeconomic history 610 $ainternational economics 610 $apolitical economy 610 $aeconomic development 610 $aindustrialization 610 $alabor market 610 $aconvergence 610 $aNew World 610 $amercantilism 610 $aIndustrial Revolution 610 $aproductivity 610 $atechnology 610 $acapital control 610 $aintellectual property 610 $aresearch and development 610 $aproductivity slowdown 610 $aAdam Smith 610 $afactor proportions model 610 $agravity model 610 $ainfant industry 610 $aimport substitution 610 $aAsian Tiger 610 $atrade policy 610 $atariff 610 $apublic choice 610 $arent seeking 610 $atrade agreement 610 $afree trade 610 $aliberalization 610 $ainformation and communications technology 610 $avertical integration 610 $asupply chain 610 $apoverty trap 610 $abig push 610 $acoordination failure 610 $aindustrial policy 610 $adiversification 610 $avalue added 610 $amanagerial capital 610 $askill biased technological change 610 $apopulation growth 610 $awage inequality 610 $amiddle income trap 610 $atradable sector 610 $aoffshoring 610 $aoutsourcing 610 $aforeign direct investment 610 $askill upgrading 610 $aimmigration 610 $awage structure 610 $aregulation 610 $acompetitiveness 610 $acorruption 610 $ademocracy 610 $aautocracy 610 $asocialism 610 $acommunism 610 $acontrolled capitalism 610 $agold standard 610 $anatural resource curse 610 $abusiness cycle 610 $acollective bargaining 610 $asocial insurance 610 $asafety net 610 $alabor union 610 $aWashington Consensus 610 $amultinational enterprise 610 $aexchange rate 610 $asweatshop 610 $aspillover 610 $ahuman rights 610 $alabor standard 610 $aproperty rights 610 $aDutch disease 610 $aextractive industry 610 $anegative externality 610 $apollution haven 610 $agreenhouse gas 610 $aglobal warming 610 $aclimate change 615 0$aInternational economic relations. 615 0$aGlobalization. 676 $a337 700 $aTorelli$b Paul.$0967727 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910453055703321 996 $aInternational economics$92197699 997 $aUNINA
