The Economics of Industries and Firms

Routledge IAFFE Advances in Feminist Economics

The last two decades have been marked by economic and social turmoil - from the global financial crash and the austerity turn to the Covid-19 pandemic, followed by cost-of-living crises, geopolitical conflicts and heightened political divisions. This succession of crises has destabilised economic and political systems and risks undermining the hard-won, albeit slow, progress towards gender equality in contemporary societies. At the same time, the way we live and work is being challenged by rapidly developing AI and digital technologies, the imperative to accelerate the transition to net zero emissions, and unresolved pressures to transform care systems to support women's sustained participation in waged work. Against this backdrop, this volume offers a long-term perspective on turbulence, grounded on comparative and country evidence from Europe, the USA, Australia, and the Global South. The chapters trace how acute shocks, chronic crises and systemic transformations reverberate through labour markets, households and state policies, reshaping gender inequalities and vulnerabilities and their intersections. The concluding discussion argues that turmoil is evolving into a polycrisis - an entanglement of economic, social, and ecological disruptions - while exposing a critical but neglected dimension of turbulence: the crisis of social reproduction and women's pivotal role in managing the tensions between production and the social reproduction spheres. By introducing a gender perspective into the polycrisis debate, this volume speaks to scholars in socioeconomics and gender studies; policy experts and advisors on gender equality; and activists, educators and the general public seeking to understand and address the challenges to gender equality in turbulent times.

This book addresses the urgent need for sustainable practices in property development, particularly within the South African context. It provides an innovative perspective on the transition from traditional Linear Economy Business Models to Circular Economy Business Models through the lens of Servitised Business Model Innovation. It aims to bridge the gap between academic theory and practical implementation, offering insights, strategies, and frameworks for property developers, policymakers, and other stakeholders to effectively adopt and implement circular and servitised approaches in the built environment.The book is structured to address three interconnected objectives: examining the drivers and challenges associated with transitioning to circular economy practices, analysing the critical role of servitised business models in enhancing circular performance, and offering a framework to guide and manage these transitions effectively. It systematically examines the socio-economic, regulatory, and operational complexities faced by property developers and offers actionable solutions tailored to the unique challenges of developing countries. The content is informed by an in-depth qualitative study involving key stakeholders from public and private property development sectors across various management levels, ensuring that the findings are both robust and practical, with takeaways for an international audience.This book addresses the critical need for tools and strategies to enable developers to overcome barriers like financial constraints, policy gaps, and resistance to change, and to achieve sustainable property development goals. It is key reading for all built environment stakeholders, those with an interest in the circular economy, and innovative business models.

Servitised Business Model Innovation for Improved Circular Economy Performance in the Built Environment

Amid accelerating global warming, the digital revolution and rising geopolitical tensions, industrial policy has taken centre-stage in EU policymaking. Consequently, initiatives such as the Green Deal Industrial Plan, the CHIPS &amp; Science Act, the Important Projects of Common European Interest (IPCEIs) and the InvestAI initiative have been developed or proposed recently. Meanwhile, by reintroducing competitiveness and security as primary objectives for industrial policy, European policymakers appear to backtrack on the social and environmental agenda, while not effectively addressing critical governance deficits and financing gaps. European industrial policy is thus at a critical juncture, and its strategic trajectory is currently under discussion. The volume intervenes into current industrial policy debates from a critical perspective. Achieving sustainable, inclusive and effective industrial policy depends on embracing a progressive approach that prioritises broad stakeholder engagement, effective governance and accelerated implementation, instead of a push for rearmament and geopolitical competition.Progressive Industrial Policy in Europe serves as a key reference for scholars and students in a diverse range of academic disciplines. The volume is also intended for researchers active at trade unions, think tanks and NGOs, along with policymakers and specialised civil servants at supranational, national and local levels.

Principles of Private and Public Planning (1951) looks at a key economic question: plan or no plan? By examining the economic theories of both planned and unplanned economies together with human and societal impulses, it aims to provide both an analysis and overview of the topic.

Every plant knows what an hour of downtime costs. Almost nobody knows where the rest of the money go It leaves through four places: the parts you own and can't find, the purchases that sit waiting for signatures, the hours your crew spends walking and waiting instead of fixing, and the information that dies somewhere between the floor and your desk. None of it has a gauge on it, so none of it shows up on a report. Ryan McIntosh has spent thirty years on the tools as a Red Seal millwright, in sawmills, OSB, oilfield, food and bottling plants, and more, and he has watched the same money leave every one of them. This book is written for the owner, the GM and the controller. It shows you where to look, and gives you the arithmetic to run on your own building. The floor already knows. Your job is building a road for it to get to you.

"What the Employer Thinks; Executives' Attitudes Toward Employees" offers a profound examination of the mindset of corporate leadership and its impact on labor relations. Written during a transformative period in industrial history, this work investigates the psychological factors that shape how executives view their employees and the responsibilities of management. J. David Houser provides a systematic analysis of executive attitudes, highlighting the often-unseen disconnect between corporate policy and the human element of the workforce.The book emphasizes the importance of understanding the employee's perspective not merely for social harmony, but as a critical component of successful industrial organization. By exploring the ethical and social obligations of those in power, the text challenges traditional views of labor as a mere commodity. This study remains a significant historical document in the fields of industrial psychology and personnel management, providing valuable insights into the evolution of human resources and the development of modern corporate culture. It is an essential resource for those interested in the history of management theory and the foundational principles of organizational behavior.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Most organizations don't fail because their people are incompetent. They fail because chaos became normal.Smooth Is Fast is a practical operational doctrine for leaders responsible for teams working under pressure. Drawing from military leadership principles, industrial operations, logistics engineering, project management, and environmental field services, this book provides a framework for building calm, scalable, high-performing organizations.This is not a motivational leadership book. It is a field-tested philosophy for reducing preventable chaos, improving communication, scaling capability, and replacing firefighting culture with operational structure.

ECONOMICS OF INNOVATION: AN INTRODUCTION

Is your company moving as fast as you think it is? Most organizations aren't--and it's costing them.Many executives would argue that their companies are moving with speed. But new research reveals the opposite. As speed becomes more critical to survival in today's unpredictable world, most companies are actually getting slower, held back by processes, technologies, and structures that once made them successful.This perception-execution gap around speed can make or break companies--yet most leaders don't know how to set their organizations up for success. In The High-Velocity Organization, Suketu Gandhi, chair of the global strategic operations practice at Kearney, offers a practical solution. By combining speed of insights, decisions, and actions, leaders can increase their velocity exponentially across the organization. Gandhi introduces a five-part framework for operationalizing intelligent speed at scale: <ul><li>Build enterprise sensing capabilities that enable a company to perceive opportunities and threats.</li><li>Break down silos to enable organizational adaptability.</li><li>Empower agile teams by encouraging decision-making and fostering collaboration.</li><li>Scale with intelligent automation to distribute insights, increase efficiency, expand capacity, and support decentralized execution at scale.</li><li>Measure what matters using new metrics that determine true competitive speed in an accelerated marketplace.</li></ul>Based on proprietary research and filled with detailed examples, The High-Velocity Organization explores the architecture, technology, and leadership needed to put speed at the heart of strategy and execution so that your company can stay adaptable while moving forward--fast.
