About this title

Synopsis

Redding (Asian business, INSEAD, France) and Stening (management, Australian National U.) present a pair of readers that discuss the importance of culture in global management and business. The first volume sets out the theoretical context of the discussion, with 21 papers, many being classics from anthropology and sociology, addressing such broad themes as how culture shapes society, the relationship between culture and the economy, investigating intercultural difference, and the intersections between culture and management science. The second volume, containing 44 essays, look at more practical concerns and are drawn mostly from management and business journals. They address issues of multinational management, cultural diversity within organizations, negotiation across cultures, international joint ventures and strategic alliances, expatriation and repatriation personnel issues, and corporate social responsibility within cross-cultural contexts.
