BOOK REVIEW by Joo Eng Lee-Partridge :
COMPETITIVES STRATEGIES & ORGANIZATIONAL CRISIS: the public decision adaptation
ABSTRACT
How does society react, if the forces that determine economic movements remain unknown? What responses can be provided to deal with social anxiety if we do not understand the mechanisms that help shape decisions of entrepreneurs? What tools of political economy is to be favored in this twice-fold new historical context, constituted simultaneously by the process of international economic integration and the emergence of formidable economic powers, if the issues and reasons that determine their movements are not analyzed? What is the economic impact of the accompanying measures to the crisis? Does it help to support medium or long-term growth and an increase in living standards, or is it rather hampered by an aging population? What accompanying policies should be favored by the industrialized nations to reinforce the effectiveness of increased spending on research? What international economic strategy could they implement starting from an increase in research spending?
The book tries to revive the public debate on the challenges and difficulties exposed by competition from the emerging markets by raising in effect, the absence of international regulation and the weaknesses of the international economy, which together, risk accelerating the international crisis and thus destroying entrepreneurial tools. The author however, addresses this topic in one regard: he intends to limit analysis to challenges posed by the new international economic policies in political economy which, in general opinion, seems to have suffered particularly from the phenomenon of organizational mobility. The book therefore pursues two main goals: firstly, to define and evaluate precisely as possible the nature and extend of the current crisis so as to prevent a certain conformism but a simplification, from leading to a misunderstanding on the availability of economic policy to reform and public support in strengthening entrepreneurial tools that enables efficient installation into this new international division of labor; while simultaneously ensuring a balanced regional and societal development.
Dr Walter AMEDZRO ST-HILAIRE is convinced, that only the affirmation on the international scale of political will to emphasize both the organizational aspect within the international framework, will allow the economy to make sustainable gains of internationalization. It is based on this condition that, more than a century ago, the economic development of emerging country.
