Titoli in Internazionale

In Secondhand, Adam Minter delves into the vast, multibillion-dollar industry that resells used stuff around the world. He follows the trail of unwanted objects from the closets, garages, and storage units of Middle America to epic used-goods markets in Canada, Mexico, Japan, Ghana, India, Malaysia, and beyond. Secondhand takes us through the often painful and heartbreaking process of cleaning out a lifetime’s worth of possessions and shows that used stuff still has a place in a world that values the new and shiny.

Présentation du Cours : "On franchit une montagne et on bute sur un caillou", disait le subtil Georges Bernanos dans sa pièce "Dialogue des Carmélites". Élite ou pas d'ailleurs, c'est souvent ce qui se passe avec le développement international. Quand les risques provoquent des catastrophes avec des détails dans lesquels le diable est venu se nicher. Une fois la stratégie internationale définie, le passage à l'action sur le terrain et la réalisation des opérations commerciales demandent de pouvoir mettre en œuvre un ensemble de techniques (commerciales, financières, logistiques, douanières...) qui vont garantir la sécurisation des affaires.

"Si tu veux être international, chante ton pays", disait Beethoven. Sur quoi se joue un match de foot ? Sur le talent des joueurs ? Non, sur un terrain de foot. De même, la stratégie ne se joue pas sur un timbre-poste mais sur le plus vaste terrain qui soit, le monde. C'est dire que développement international n'est pas qu'une aventure passionnante qui ne peut pas être entreprise en dilettante. C'est aussi un axe stratégique que seule la crainte du pléonasme nous interdit de qualifier de fondamental pour une entreprise digne de ce nom.

"J'aime l'Allemagne, j'aime tellement l'Allemagne que je me réjouis chaque jour qu'il y en ait deux ", disait François Mauriac qui avait une conception très personnelle de la charité. L'Allemagne est la première économie d'Europe et le premier partenaire de la France. C'est dire qu'une stratégie internationale ne saurait faire l'impasse sur nos cousins germains si germains. Il se dit que les organisations économiques des deux pays ne sont pas les mêmes et que la compréhension mutuelle n'est pas toujours d'une fluidité parfaite.

Hoy en día, las revoluciones tecnológicas y digitales transforman de manera drástica y abrupta casi todas las facetas de nuestra vida, y cambian la forma de hacer las cosas, de producir y, también, de consumir. Es la llamada disrupción. Pero, ¿qué es realmente la disrupción? Para...

During his life and even after his death, Captain William Kidd’s name was known around England and the American colonies. He was infamous for the very crime for which he was hanged, piracy. This book by Rebecca Simon dives into the details of the two-year manhunt for Captain Kidd and the events that ensued afterward. Captain Kidd was hanged in 1701, and from that sprung a massive hunt for all pirates led by the British during a period known as the Golden Age of Piracy. Ironically, public executions only led to pirates’ growth in popularity and interest.

The crisis that followed the collapse of Lehman Brothers marked the fourth systemic transformation of capitalism since the late 18th century. Capitalism was not destroyed by the crisis, but it was irrevocably changed. This provocative audiobook shows how the forces that precipitated the financial meltdown of 2007-2009 are now creating a new and stronger version of the global capitalist system. This system will continue to be led and shaped by the U.S. if its businesses and politicians play their cards well.

During the 1920s and 1930s, Bruce Barton was a household name in America - a hugely successful advertising man who revolutionized his industry by treating customers like people, not like sheep to be fleeced. He created some of the most memorable and long-lived advertising slogans and campaigns in history. He understood how to succeed in business and advertising, and he set down his principles for success in best-selling books that put his name on everyone's lips.

As individuals, companies, and countries struggle to recover from the economic crisis, many are narrowly focused on forecasts for the next week, month, or quarter. Yet they should be asking what the global economy will look like in the years to come—where will the long-term risks and opportunities arise? These are the questions that Daniel Altman confronts in his provocative and indispensable book.

In the 1980s, countries across Asia stunned the world with meteoric economic growth—but when eyes turn to Africa today, it is often to lament corruption, violence, and poverty rather than to scout the next developmental frontrunners.
