Breaking into the Russian market has always been a challenging
task, particularly for Western organisations, and personal networks
play a crucial role in achieving this. However, personal networks
that exist in Russian business remain a mystery. The aim of this
book is to address the role of informal relations and trust in
Russian society and business. Our findings provide a deeper
understanding of the relationship between Russian business and
personal relations, thus helping foreign practitioners and
investors to enter the Russian market and develop strong
business-stakeholder relationships. With the intention not to
criticise or dress up the image of Russia but to provide coherent
analysis and discussion on how things work in Russia or describe
"the rules of the relationships game", this book discussed ten
personal networks existing in Russian society and business, nature
and structure of relations, local social norms and codes, trust
development process, knowledge and information sharing, entry and
exit rules, and provides practical suggestions. This book is
essential for anybody intending to do business in Russia and
particularly suitable for practitioners, investors, researchers and
business students.
This book provides a succinct overview of the evolution of policies
addressing energy and climate justice in South Africa. Drawing on a
range of analytical perspectives, including socio-technical
studies, just transitions, and critical political economy, it
explains why South Africa's energy transition from a
coal-dependent, centralised power generation and distribution
system has been so slow, and reveals the types of socio-political
inequalities that persist across regimes and energy sources. Topics
explored include critical approaches to the South African state and
its state-owned energy provider, Eskom; the political ecologies of
coal and water; the politics of non-renewable energy alternatives;
as well as the trajectory and fate of the Renewable Energy
Independent Power Producers Procurement Programme (REIPPPP), the
country's major renewable energy policy. The book concludes with
reflections on alternative, neglected energy and development paths,
suggesting how the political economy of South Africa's energy
system could be further transformed for the better.
