By means of this and similar case studies, Paul H. D. Kaplan documents the ways in which American cultural encounters with Europe and its venerable artistic traditions influenced nineteenth-century concepts of race in the United States.Americans of the Civil War era were struck by the presence of people of color in European art and society, and American artists and authors, both black and white, adapted and transformed European visual material to respond to the particular struggles over the identity of African Americans. Taking up the work of both well- and lesser-known artists and writers?such as the travel writings of Mark Twain and William Dean Howells, the paintings of German American Emanuel Leutze, the epistolary exchange between John Ruskin and Charles Eliot Norton, newspaper essays written by Frederick Douglass and William J. Wilson, and the sculpture of freed slave Eugène Warburg?Kaplan lays bare how racial attitudes expressed in mid-nineteenth-century American art were deeply inflected by European traditions. By highlighting the contributions people of black African descent made to the fine arts in the United States during this period, along with the ways in which they were represented, Contraband Guides provides a fresh perspective on the theme of race in Civil War?era American art. It will appeal to art historians, to specialists in African American studies and American studies, and to general readers interested in American art and African American history. 606 $aAfrican American art$xEuropean influences 606 $aAfrican American art$y19th century 606 $aArt, American$y19th century 606 $aAfrican Americans in art$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aArt and race$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aBlack people in art$xHistory$y19th century 610 $aAbraham Lincoln. 610 $aAdoration of the Magi. 610 $aAfrican American. 610 $aAfro-European. 610 $aBilly Lee. 610 $aCharles Eliot Norton. 610 $aCivil War. 610 $aEmanuel Leutze. 610 $aEugène Warburg. 610 $aFrederick Douglass. 610 $aGeorge Washington. 610 $aHarriet Beecher Stowe. 610 $aJacopo Tintoretto. 610 $aJohn Hay. 610 $aJohn Ruskin. 610 $aJoshua Bowen Smith. 610 $aMark Twain. 610 $aNeoclassical sculpture. 610 $aPaolo Veronese. 610 $aPierre Soulé. 610 $aRace. 610 $aSlavery. 610 $aTransatlantic. 610 $aWilliam Cooper Nell. 610 $aWilliam Dean Howells. 610 $aWilliam J.

The Bottom of the Pyramid in Africa is frequently mentioned as an attractive market due to its sheer size. Yet most companies struggle to access it because of the low price level, difficult physical market access and challenges when it comes to payment. More specifically, the book investigates the following business model-related questions: Do pharmaceutical companies provide products that meet the needs of the BoP? What characterizes the value generation of the company? What revenue model leads to a profitable business, and what role does a network of partners play in the business model? Findings reveal that there is no ?one-size-fits-all? answer to these questions. Providing continuous availability, affordability at a good quality of goods and services, creating health awareness, as well as localizing business to achieve a level of inclusivenessare essential prerequisites for success. In the last chapter this book provides a business model prototype that accounts for these key success factors for business at the Bottom of the Pyramid and points to further research topics. 410 0$aSpringerBriefs in Business,$x2191-5490 606 $aAfrica$xEconomic conditions 606 $aBusiness 606 $aAfrica 606 $aSales management 606 $aPharmacology 606 $aInternational economic integration 606 $aGlobalization 606 $aHealth services administration 606 $aAfrican Economics 606 $aAfrican Business 606 $aSales and Distribution 606 $aPharmacology 606 $aEmerging Markets and Globalization 606 $aHealth Care Management 615 0$aAfrica$xEconomic conditions. 615 0$aBusiness. 615 0$aAfrica. 615 0$aSales management. 615 0$aPharmacology. 615 0$aInternational economic integration. 615 0$aGlobalization. 615 0$aHealth services administration. 615 14$aAfrican Economics. 615 24$aAfrican Business. 615 24$aSales and Distribution. 615 24$aPharmacology. 615 24$aEmerging Markets and Globalization. 615 24$aHealth Care Management. 676 $a338.96 700 $aCarlowitz$b Philipp von$0903172 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910468237503321 996 $aSuccess in the bottom of the pyramid market in Africa$92018976 997 $aUNINA
