Studienkurs Wirtschaft

Das Lehrbuch richtet sich an Studierende der Sozial- und Wirtschaftswissenschaften und vermittelt kompakt und verständlich die zentralen Grundlagen eines nachhaltigen, modernen Wirtschaftens im digitalen Wandel. Behandelt werden digitale Wertschöpfung und Geschäftsmodelle, New Work, Kultur und Rollenwechsel, Governance und Verantwortung. Ein Schwerpunkt liegt auf dem Change-Management als Kern der Transformation - mit gängigen Modellen (u. a. Lewin, Kotter, ADKAR) und ihrer Anwendung auf typische Transformationssituationen. Didaktisch klar strukturiert arbeitet der Band mit Querverweisen, Schaubildern, Kapitelzusammenfassungen sowie Wissens-, Verständnis- und Diskussionsfragen zur Prüfungsvorbereitung.

Prof. Dr. Sandra Niedermeier ist Professorin für Digitalisierung in Bildung und Gesellschaft an der Hochschule Kempten, promovierte pädagogische Psychologin und leitet das Institut für digitale Transformation in Arbeit, Bildung und Gesellschaft (IDT). Sie ist zudem Studiendekanin der Fakultät Betriebswirtschaft sowie KI- und E-Learning Beauftragte der Hochschule.

Digitale Transformation

The global economic edifice built after World War II is a source of unprecedented prosperity. It cannot function without open and predictable international trade, and the peaceful international relations that are its foundation. The rules that enable trade are under attack. Social divisions and great power rivalry have eroded the political support for open trade. The consequence is fragmentation of world trade, its separation into blocks that advance domestic producers or favored nations nearby. These blocs are themselves often pulled apart by competing agendas. The prospects are for vastly reduced economic efficiency and - most ominously - heightened geopolitical tensions. The questions about why this is happening, how economic fragmentation will evolve, and how to respond to it, are uppermost in the minds of policymakers and businesses across the world. These are the questions that Uri Dadush seeks to answer. Since the uncertainty cannot be dispelled, it must be better managed.

Geopolitics, Trade Blocks, and the Fragmentation of World Commerce

1300-1600

GLOBAL Nuremberg

Capitalism is the most powerful, creative and destructive social system the world has ever seen. Vigorously celebrated and fiercely contested, it provides the backdrop for the pipelines and platforms that supply audiences with entertainment, information and connection. This book provides an accessible introduction to the key characteristics of capitalism and illustrates how they shape and distort our media and communications landscapes. Exploring concepts including accumulation, exploitation, ideology, oppression, commodification and colonization, the book discusses the impact of these processes on everything from our experiences online and the dynamics of algorithms to the power of oligarchs and the media's role in the escalating environmental crisis. At a time when technology is often heralded as either the cause or the solution to issues of polarization, disinformation and atomization, an understanding of the simultaneous resilience and fragility of capitalism is essential. Capitalism and the Media is important reading for students of media, communications, cultural studies and politics and provides a valuable resource for scholars and activists.

Borderlines and Bottlenecks features a rich collection of real-world examples and detailed case studies, highlighting how recent pandemic and geopolitical events, including the Sino-US trade war, the COVID pandemic, the Russia-Ukraine War, and the Red Sea Crisis, have disrupted and reshaped global supply chains. By exploring the complex interplay between political, economic, and social forces, readers gain a deeper understanding of the challenges and opportunities facing businesses and policymakers in the rapidly changing supply chain landscape. Zhang uses social media-based discourse analysis and pioneering work in GIS-based discourse analysis to offer fresh insights into global supply chain dynamics.

Global Supply Chain Geography in a Post-Pandemic World

Borderlines and Bottlenecks

This book examines why the liberal international order, once seemingly unassailable, now confronts existential questions in the twenty-first century's opening decades. It shows how the rise of the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), BRICS, and Bitcoin-the '3 Bs'- has signalled a fundamental shift in global power dynamics and governance frameworks. It analyzes how these three externalities challenge core assumptions about international cooperation, economic governance, and hegemonic leadership. They also posit alternative visions: infrastructure-led connectivity, multipolar economic alliances, and decentralized financial systems that bypass traditional Western institutions. Moving beyond nostalgia or triumphalism, it explores what frameworks might emerge as the world transitions from unipolarity-and whether liberal internationalism can adapt, reform, or must yield to fundamentally different organizing principles for global order.The volume will be of great interest to researchers and students of politics and international relations, development studies and international organizations. Accessible and comprehensive, it will also be of interest to general readers.

3 Bs and a Crumbling World Order

A history of the technology of supply-chain management from punch cards to neural nets, and how the ambiguity built into that technology helps companies and exploits workersSeeing Like a Supply Chain is a compelling investigation into the hidden networks that drive our global economy. Miriam Posner presents a blow-by-blow account of the technology of supply-chain management from punch cards to neural nets, revealing how the system's built-in ambiguity shields companies from accountability while exploiting workers.Drawing on more than a decade of research, Posner shows how computation converged with the growth of global trade to allow for a lightning-quick, astoundingly efficient supply chain that lets corporations source products without any notion of where their goods are actually being produced. At a time when multinational firms fear the reputational damage of human rights violations in the making of their products, the supply chain's shroud of vagueness is a feature, not a bug. Posner shows how this is technically accomplished-and how the strategic disavowal of information extends through every step of that chain.

Seeing Like a Supply Chain

This textbook, the first to originate from the Caribbean context, examines human resource management (HRM) against the background of the unique cultural, economic, and social factors that shape HRM practices in the region. Beyond the regional business environment, it addresses the impact of globalization on organizations and the strategic value of HRM. The book underscores that human capital is the main differentiator for organization competitiveness.
The book is divided into five sections covering 1) strategic HRM in a globalized business world, 2) the core HRM functions critical for organizational success, 3) key elements that contribute to a high-performance workplace, such as employee engagement, utility of teams and performance evaluation systems, 4) fostering employee-management relations and improving workplace productivity, and 5) contemporary challenges for HRM, such as DEI, digital HRM and outsourcing/offshoring.
Featuring cases from indigenous Caribbean companies, this textbook is an invaluable resource for students, HRM practitioners and/or professionals, managers and entrepreneurs, especially those operating within the region, who are seeking to enhance organizational effectiveness and competitiveness.

In this book, Scott Alan Carson&nbsp;considers&nbsp;the relationship between economic development and net nutrition. Highlighting new health patterns found from a thorough analysis of more than 320,000 height observations across imprisoned individuals and the general public in the 19th- and 20th-century United States, the book highlights a new history of United States net nutrition, health, and urbanization.The book begins with historical observations regarding wealth, income, agricultural productivity, transportation revolution, and disease in urban landscapes. Chapters span the Barker hypothesis, nutritional variations by region, migratory patterns, and domestic residence. Analysing data related to height, race, gender, socioeconomic status, and disease, Carson reveals previously unexplored and undetected health variation. The book examines the historical health of the American populace during industrialization as it relates to broader economic change and public well-being.Exploring the human cost of urbanization, the book offers economists, anthropometric researchers, economic historians, and anthropologists a new way to conceptualize the relationship between historical health data and urbanization.Scott Alan Carson&nbsp;
