The Big Ten: The Big Emerging Markets And How They Will Change Our Lives
Autor Jeffrey E. Gartenen Limba Engleză Paperback – 11 apr 1998
A
dramatic
transformation
of
global
power
is
under
way,
one
only
dimly
recognized
by
most
Americans.
As
economics
and
trade
now
loom
larger
than
nuclear
stockpiles
or
Cold
War
ideology,
those
countries
with
the
fastest
growing
economies
have
begun
to
rewrite
the
rules
of
power
and
influence
in
the
world.
These
nations
are
the
Big
Emerging
Markets,
and
for
too
long
we
have
failed
to
recognize
their
importance.
We
can
no
longer
afford
that
luxury.The
Big
Tenis
the
essential
guide
to
the
ten
most
important
Big
Emerging
Markets.
Jeffrey
E.
Garten,
the
Dean
of
the
Yale
School
of
Management
and
the
former
Under
Secretary
of
Commerce
for
International
Trade,
explains
who
they
are,
why
they
have
burst
onto
the
world
scene,
and
how
they
will
reshape
the
world
in
the
twenty-first
century.
The
ten
countries
to
watch
are
spread
across
the
globe:
Mexico,
Brazil,
and
Argentina
in
the
Americas;
China,
India,
Indonesia,
and
South
Korea
in
Asia;
Poland
and
Turkey
in
Europe;
and
in
Africa,
South
Africa.
The
Big
Ten
are
bigger
than
most
people
realize:
they
are
home
to
half
the
world's
population,
and
the
United
States
exports
more
products
to
these
countries
than
to
Europe
and
Japan
combined.
They
also
wield
immense
political
influence
in
many
of
the
world's
most
critical
regions.
Moreover,
American
industrial
firms,
mutual
funds,
and
pension
plans
have
begun
to
invest
heavily
in
these
dynamic
economies,
making
our
own
prosperity
increasingly
dependent
on
theirs.While
the
Big
Ten
offer
new
opportunities
for
the
United
States,
Garten
observes
their
potential
political
instability
could
create
economic
havoc
around
the
world.
In
addition,
they
pose
powerful
ethical
and
strategic
dilemmas.
The
BEMs
do
not
share
our
values
regarding
human
rights,
child
labor,
corruption,
or
environmental
degradation,
and
our
growing
contacts
with
these
societies
are
sure
to
violate
our
notions
of
fairness
and
our
moral
sensibilities.
And
as
the
Big
Ten
grow
and
mature
as
regional
powers,
they
will
pose
unprecedented
challenges
to
American
global
leadership.Drawing
on
his
first-hand
experiences
at
the
highest
levels
of
government,
finance,
and
academia,
Garten
advances
a
comprehensive
plan
for
America
to
meet
the
challenges
of
this
emerging
new
world.
he
addresses
the
critical
questions
facing
American
policy
makers,
business
executives,
educators,
and
concerned
citizens,
and
he
outlines
the
bold
changes
that
will
be
necessary
if
we
are
to
control
our
national
destiny
in
the
decades
to
come.The
Big
Tenwill
help
readers
understand
the
importance
of
NAFTA,
the
rise
of
China,
the
connection
between
trade
and
human
rights,
and
the
imperatives
for
American
foreign
policy,
business,
and
higher
education.
Packed
with
powerful
insights
and
real-life
stories
from
the
front
lines
of
international
commerce,The
Big
Tenwill
redefine
the
way
we
think
about
America's
global
role
in
the
twenty-first
century.
