Review Bare Essentials: The ALDI Way of Retailing / Cyan Communications:ALDI is a phenomenon in consumer retailing - some would say a miracle. Often compared to Wal-Mart and General Electric, the inner workings and factors driving the success of this retail giant are revealed in this book by a former ALDI executive. For ALDI, success comes from being different. ALDI is distinctive, with a corporate culture, philosophy, working principles and organisational methods that have brought significant growth and success. ALDI believes that this difference is what makes for success in the long term – and has seen the company growing profitably for over 50 years. What is it that ALDI has done – and continues to do – so differently, and what are the implications of this approach for other companies and industries? In this book, Dieter Brandes examines the inner-workings of ALDI and how it became such a retailing force. The lessons here are relevant for any company who find themselves in a competitive business environment.

Review Legal Treatment of Foreign Investment:The "World Bank Guidelines" / Springer:On September 21, 1992, the Development Committee, a joint ministerial committee of the Boards of Governors of the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund issued a set of universal guidelines on the legal treatment of foreign investment and called those Guidelines to the attention of the members of these institutions. The text of the guidelines was prepared by a small working group chaired by Ibrahim Shihata, the World Bank's Vice President and General Counsel. According to Mr. Shihata, the success of this endeavour was "the product of changing realities and perceptions about foreign investment and the benefits it can bring to global economy and the economies of developing countries in particular. In a broader sense, the great transformations of the late 80s and early 90s created a new environment which made possible agreement on many issues thought earlier to defy common solutions. " This book provides a record and a personal account of the author of the steps which led to the issue, by the Development Committee, of the Guidelines on the Treatment of Foreign Investment, and a first hand explanation of the text of the Guidelines (which is published in the book in three languages). The book also contains the studies which preceded the preparations of that text and the official reports which explain its rationale and contents. The book may therefore be read as a complement to the author's earlier book on "MIGA and Foreign Investment" (1988). Together, the two books provide detailed accounts of the continued efforts by the World Bank to encourage the flow of international investments through specific mechanisms which complement its financing, catalytic and advisory roles in pursuance of one of its main purposes, which is "to promote foreign private investment. ".

Review Multinational Enterprises and Host Economies (The Globalization of the World Economy Series) / Edward Elgar Pub:Multinational enterprises (MNEs) invest in a variety of host economies, and closely interact with local businesses and society at large. This role has become the focus of policy debates of all sorts, as MNEs are seen as a primary conduit of globalization, thus spreading both its benefits and its negative side effects. This selection offers an interdisciplinary perspective on MNEs and host economies. Theoretical models are provided by economics research, yet some of the more subtle and complex forms of impact are hard to analyse using economics methodologies. A range of other disciplines such as management, sociology and ethics thus contribute to the discussion of these wider issues. The articles in this collection cover theoretical and empirical studies on the horizontal and vertical impact on local firms, to issues of labour standards and the natural environment, and normative issues.
