Globalization and partnerships : features of business alliances and international cooperation

"Growing economic gloablisation as increased internaitonal business competition and international economic interdependence. From this perspective many firms have formed business partnerships and most nations have had to re-evaluate their economic interdependence (Aurifeille, Svizzero and Tisdell, 2006). This book explores changes that have occurred or have been proposed in this regard. It provides new insights into business partnerships and international economic interdependence, given growing economic globalisation, and explores the managerial and socio-economic consequences of those ideas."--[p. 3].
