Book Description
Business History and International Business are cognate subjects. There are few, if any, studies of international business that do not require a proper study of context. International business decision making must be made relevant by a considered evaluation of the circumstances surrounding that decision. This often means putting it into its historical context. The contributions that the study of international business can make to business history are the input of appropriate theory and appropriate research methods. The best international business theory can illuminate the seemingly disparate strategies of firms in given historical circumstances and can provide an integrated, overarching conceptual structure of the study of business history. The research methods used in international business are also worthy of scrutiny by business historians. The proposition of this book is that international business theory and method can complement business history. This cross-fertilization has been occurring with increasing regularity over the past few decades and this book brings together some of the fruits of this conjunction of two important intellectual domains. This book was published as a special issue of Business History.

Book Description
Investments by Spanish firms in Latin America have grown since the early 1990s by taking over many of the state-owned firms put out to tender. Second only to the United States, these investments make Spain one of the largest markets of foreign direct investment for Latin America. This multidisciplinary volume focuses on the emergence of Spanish multinational enterprises in this region. Furthermore, it analyzes the sociological and political consequences of these investments and exhibits several theoretical and methodological approaches that make the book a useful aid for teaching. It is essential reading for those who want to understand structural reforms, their consequences and the international impact of economic reform.

Book Description
Throughout the Twentieth Century, big business has been a basic institution. Large corporations have provided a fundamental contribution to the wealth of nations and, at the same time, have had a remarkable impact on the political and social systems within which they have operated. It is difficult to understand the development of the most advanced economies if we do not consider the specific evolution of big business in every national case. On the other hand, it is not possible to explain the shape and behavior of big business without considering its development as part of the history of the country in which they operate. The largest US, German, British and French firms were key actors in favoring their nations' development and, even at the end of the Twentieth Century, made a very important contribution to their growth. In many countries, a stable core of large corporations developed only relatively lately, or did not develop at all, and under these circumstances, big business was not able to significantly participate in the economic growth of such countries. Scholars who dealt with the economic history of Italy and Spain are generally unanimous in tagging these nations as industrial late-comers, ineffective in promoting big autochthonous private and State-owned firms, dominated by family companies, and characterized by a strong competitive advantage on the part of small and medium-sized enterprises. At the same time, Spanish and Italian business and economic historians have tended to say little about the role and features of big business. This book thus fills a significant gap in the work on the development of Southern European capitalism and its large corporations by analyzing the Italian and Spanish cases and comparing them with each other and with what has occurred in the United States and in the largest European nations. Examining both the macro dynamics (national but also supra national) and the micro level, utilizing samples of big corporations and going deeply into some company cases, this volume identifies some important protagonists of the Italian and Spanish economies (such as the State, families and foreign investors) and investigates a wider panorama which includes the political, economic and social relationships of the corporations, providing insights into the form of capitalism that exists in these countries.

Book Description
En lo bueno y en lo malo. Así es como una empresa demuestra su liderazgo y buena gestión frente a la que es flor de un día. Por ello, Jorge Díaz-Cardiel aprovecha su bagaje como experto en el mundo de la gestión y la economía para hacer un homenaje a todas aquellas compañías que han sabido evolucionar y anticiparse a los tiempos difíciles y, como consecuencia, siguen estando en lo más alto. Además, el autor resalta la importancia que tiene el papel de los responsables de Comunicación en la consecución de tan buenos resultados. Éxito con o sin crisis analiza el recorrido de las compañías que cumplen con al menos 25 parámetros empresariales incluidos en su código genético: en los tiempos de bonanza, esos factores son arietes, puntas de lanza que les ayudan a mejorar la cuenta de resultados, distribuir más dividendo a los accionistas o ganar cuota de mercado. Y, en los complicados, todo se hace más llevadero. Las empresas analizadas son: Telefónica, Iberdrola, Danone, Microsoft, HP, Intel, La Caixa, Abertis, El Corte Inglés, Novartis, AC Hoteles, NH, Iberostar, Sol Meliá, Paradores de Turismo, Mapfre, Caser, Sanitas, Seguros Pelayo, Línea Directa Aseguradora, Santander, Indra, Deloitte y PWC.
