Die weitreichenden Entwicklungen, die sich in dem immer schneller vollziehenden weltwirtschaftlichen Wandel manifestieren, stellen für Unternehmen strategische Gelegenheiten dar. Ziel des Buches ist es, anhand von drei Themenkomplexen (Wettbewerb und Kernkompetenz, Joint Ventures und strategische Allianzen sowie Unternehmensperformance) das Verständnis dieses Prozesses zu vertiefen, und zwar insbesondere am Beispiel Nord- und Südamerikas.
