Business
in today’s world is increasingly diverse. Undertaking commerce, even by
an individual, can mean working globally through a welter of new media
with opportunities of all kinds rapidly appearing. The boundaries,
scope, content, structures, and processes of a business activity can
morph into completely different ones in the course of a project.
Contemporary businesses, and certainly future businesses, find it
incumbent upon them to fit within the requirements of environmental and
economic sustainability of the others who inhabit our world.
With more than 1,000 entries, the Encyclopedia
of Business in Today's World is packed with essential and up-to-date
information on the state of business in our world. Not only does it
reflect where business is, it also conveys the trajectory of business
farther into the 21st century. These four volumes provide clear
overviews of the important business topics of our time, ranging from
culture shock to currency hedging, political risk, offshoring, and
transnational corporations. The wealth of topics represent an integrated
vision by the editor of a perplexity of functions, technologies, and
environmental factors.
