First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: New. 1st Edition. Too Small to Fail analyzes how several successful 'small' countries, with populations under twenty million, have made a virtue out of their physical limitations. The book seeks to understand what it is they do differently, and why. What is their recipe for achieving better-educated, more egalitarian and wealthier populations? The book looks first at the forest and then the trees. It examines the characteristics shared by small countries, such as Switzerland, Ireland, Singapore, and the Scandinavian states. It draws parallels and discovers patterns shared among them that are common to each of their success stories. The book then looks at the policies of selected countries that have paved the way for remarkable improvements; and considers the individuals, corporations and institutions that have made a positive and sustainable impact. It further goes on to explain how these small countries are reshaping the World in a never before manner.

Couverture rigide. Condition: Très bon. In-8, cartonnage couleurs. En belle condition. Illustrations in-texte, en noir et en couleurs. Comment un petit pays privé de ressources naturelles a-t-il pu se doter d'une économie prospère, capable de rayonner dans le monde entier, et dans quasiment tous les secteurs ? Comment a-t-il pu se hisser au rang de pays le plus compétitif du monde ? Sur quelles institutions, et sur quelles caractéristiques, a-t-il pu s'appuyer pour obtenir d'aussi flatteurs résultats ? Et que signifie ce « Swiss made » qui sait se renouveler constamment ? Ces questions reviennent régulièrement dans les journaux et dans les discours politiques. Peut-on parler de modèle ? Et peut-il inspirer d'autres pays ? Et ce modèle est-il durable ? Ce livre répond à ces questions, balayant toutes les idées reçues qui encombrent souvent les commentaires relatifs à la Suisse !

Gr.-8°, 432 S. farb. u. schw.-w. Abb, Kart., Tadellos. Vorwort von James, Herald.Warum wurde die Schweiz reich? Und kann sie es bleiben? Diese Fragen sind für das Selbstverständ- nis des Landes zentral. «Wirtschaftswunder Schweiz» beantwortet sie in kompetenter und allgemein verständlicher Weise. Das Buch beschreibt Ursprung, Struktur und Besonderheiten von wichtigen und international ausstrahlenden Branchen der Schweizer Wirtschaft. Im Zentrum steht die Frage, wie ein an Ressourcen armes Land in so vielen Bereichen der Wirtschaft zu einem so wichtigen globalen Player werden konnte. Das Buch belegt, dass unternehmerisches Denken und die Offenheit für neue Impulse enorme Bedeutung für den wirtschaftlichen Erfolg der Schweiz haben. Es gibt ausserdem kritisch und historisch reflektiert Antwort auf die Frage, ob das Land angesichts der Globalisierung, dem Aufstieg neuer Wirtschaftsmächte und der globalen Finanzkrise seinen Spitzenplatz halten kann. 1200 gr. Schlagworte: Helvetica - Allgemein, Wirtschaft.
