Dividido en cuatro partes que cubren el proceso de internacionalización, la logÃstica internacional, la responsabilidad social corporativa transfronteriza y la confianza en Ãfrica, el libro cubre una variedad de tendencias emergentes, debates académicos y cuestiones en evolución en todo el espectro de la investigación empresarial.

This book presents insights from cutting-edge international business and management research relating to Africa. Economic growth and foreign investment in the region remains strong, despite some slowing down in recent years.

In this context, new relationships and interactions have stimulated business research on Africa. Split into four parts covering the internationalization process, international logistics, trans-border corporate social responsibility and trust in Africa, the book covers a range of emerging trends, academic discussion and evolving issues across the spectrum of business research. It is a valuable read for students, researchers and practitioners interested in doing business in Africa. |
