The book examines the international, cross-cultural environment faced by international firms, detailing how this environment affects behavior at both the individual and organizational levels. Fully updated to incorporate the latest research in the field, Punnett has also invested in several new features that will make this book even more appealing to students and instructors: Expanded and new coverage of several key topics, including diversity, multi-cultural teams, virtual teams, global careers, global talent management, global value chains, ethics, and millennials. New pedagogy-learning objectives, chapter summaries, lessons learned, cases, mini-cases, and discussion questions-to help students consolidate learning and encourage critical thinking. Clearly written and concise, International Perspectives on Organizational Behavior helps students of international organizational behavior and cross-cultural management classes understand the many differences that managers face when operating cross-nationally, and provides them with practical tools to tackle these differences.

Soziale Arbeit ist historisch und bis in die Gegenwart hinein eng mit sozialen Bewegungen verzahnt, sowohl als Verbündete, zum Teil auch in Opposition zu diesen. Dieses Engagement findet seinen Niederschlag in Konventionen (Menschenrechte), Kooperationen (Weltkonferenzen) und Koalitionen (NGOs). Das Lehrbuch bietet einen Einblick in die Verbindungen sozialer Bewegungen und Sozialer Arbeit aus einer internationalen Perspektive. Es werden historische und theoretische Grundlagen vermittelt und mit Fallbeispielen aus der ganzen Welt praxisnah veranschaulicht. Ziel ist es, die Perspektiven einer "global social work profession and discipline" und damit die internationalen und politischen Dimensionen Sozialer Arbeit wieder stärker in den Vordergrund der Disziplin zu rücken.

Distinguishes five contending International Relations perspectives on background ideas Calls for more cross-fertilisation across perspectives to deal with conceptual challenges pertaining to backgrounds, agency, as well as change and persistence Summarises contributions to forum The actors we study do not reflect upon their background ideas. They simply take them for granted. Precisely because of this taken-for-grantedness, these ideas are very powerful. They shape world politics in profound ways. The discipline of International Relations has neglected background ideas for a long time. In the last two decades, however, a heterogeneous cluster of research has developed that inquires into what constitutes background ideas, how backgrounds affect politics, and how they come to change. The purpose of this special forum is to take stock of the current state of research, to make authors embracing different perspectives on background ideas engage with one another's arguments, and thus to improve our explanatory and normative understandings of backgrounds in world politics.

L'auteur illustre, à travers le cas brésilien, les atouts d'économies de taille continentale, dotées d 'extraordinaires ressources productives et d'un grand potentiel de marché intérieur. Il développe la thèse que, même très internationalisés, ces pays peuvent changer radicalement leur mode d'insertion internationale et se prémunir des effets dévastateurs de la mondialisation, en adoptant une insertion souveraine et non pas passive.
