Handbook of Green Economics reveals the breadth and depth of
advanced research on sustainability and growth, also identifying
opportunities for future developments. Through its multidimensional
examination, it demonstrates how overarching concepts, such as
green growth, low carbon economy, circular economy and others work
together. Some chapters reflect on different discourses on the
green economy, including pro-growth perspectives and transformative
approaches that entail de-growth. Others argue that green policies
can spark economic innovation, particularly in developing and
emerging market economies. Part literature summary, part analysis
and part argument, this book shows how the right conditions can
stimulate economic growth while achieving environmental
sustainability. This book will be a valuable resource for graduate
students and academic researchers whose focus is on the green
economy. With an increasing interest in the topic among researchers
and policymakers, users will find different theoretical
perspectives and explore policy implications in this growing
subject area.
Chinese multinationals have grown in size and increased their
global presence dramatically over the last decade. They have
emerged as formidable competitors for western incumbents. These
firms have instigated profound changes, such as displaced trade and
investment flows, new business models, and the emergence of a new
geography of global innovation. In a single volume, The Era of
Chinese Multinationals captures the forces driving the disruptive
growth of Chinese multinational corporations. Following a
presentation of the surge of Chinese companies, the book turns to
corporate characteristics of those firms and how they compare with
western multinationals in terms of revenues, profits, branding, and
business strategy. The book uses data and case studies to depict
the relevant issues with the goal of providing insights to global
executives on collaborating and competing with Chinese companies.
Introduction to financial derivatives is a concise introduction to
the fundamentals and applications of financial derivatives.
Introduction to financial derivatives provides a framework and
reference guide that lays the foundation for more advanced studies
and titles. The basics of the derivatives market and its four main
classes - forwards, futures, options and swaps - are discussed,
with the generic principles and applications of each being covered
in relative detail but in a simplified format (omitting all
derivation of formulae and underlying assumptions). Related
concepts and terminology, often confusing to first-time users, are
explained. Introduction to financial derivatives is primarily aimed
at second-year students and short-course providers, but
undergraduate and graduate students that specialise in related
disciplines (e.g. accounting or MBA) should also find it useful.
