Both as a field of academic enquiry and a central tenet of international business, the field of International HRM has witnessed significant development over the past decade. Inspired by the idea that this ever increasing internationalization of business brings into sharp focus the need to develop a more in-depth understanding of international HRM and its associated activities, this book brings together some of the leading authorities in this field. The chapters cover matters central to both our conceptualization of international HRM as an area of enquiry and the practice of people management in a cross-cultural and increasingly globalized context.
During World War II, America's shipbuilding industry, mobilized under the U.S. Maritime Commission, set records of production that have never been equaled. Given the daunting task of building ships faster than they were being sunk, shipbuilding firms across the country found new ways to increase their efficiency and scale of production. Huge new shipyards were built, a labor force of 640,000 was employed, and over 55 million deadweight tons of ocean-going ships were delivered, including the famous Liberty and Victory ships. First published in 1951, "Ships for Victory" chronicles this remarkable wartime program in magisterial detail: the development of revolutionary construction methods; the upheavals in management, awarding of contracts, and allocation of steel and other materials; the recruitment, training, housing, and union activities of the workers; the crises, confusions, and scandals that arose; and the role of shipbuilding within the total war effort.
