Повний текст джерелаLet f:K^n-->K^p be a C^2 semi-algebraic mapping for K=R and a polynomial mapping for K=C. It is well-known that f is a locally trivial topological fibration over the complement of the bifurcation set B(f). In this work, we consider the t-regularity and rho-regularity to study B(f). We show that t-regularity is equivalent to regularity conditions of Rabier (1997), Gaffney (1999), Kurdyka, Orro, Simon (2000) and Jelonek (2003). We prove that t-regularity implies rho-regularity. From rho-regularity, we define the set of non rho-regular values S(f), and the set A_{rho}, which is the union of f(Sing f) and S(f). We prove a structure theorem for S(f) and A_{rho}. We also obtain that B(f) is contained in A_{rho}. We study also two classes of maps, the fair maps and the Newton non-degenerate maps. For fair maps, we give an interpretation of t-regularity in terms of integral closure of modules, which is a real counterpart of Gaffney's result (1999). For non-degenerate maps, we obtain an approximation for B(f) through a set which depends on the Newton polyhedron of f (results like this have been obtained by Némethi and Zaharia (1990) and by Chen and Tibar (2012)). To finish, we discuss some consequences of our work: the t-regularity for maps f: X-->K^p, where X is a smooth affine variety; the problem of bijectivity of semi-algebraic maps; and a formula to compute the Euler characteristic of regular fibers of f:R^n-->R^{n-1}. The above results are also extensions of some results obtained, for polynomial functions f:K^n-->K, by Némethi and Zaharia (1990), Siersma and Tibar (1995), Paunescu and Zaharia (1997), Parusinski (1995) and Tibar (1998)

Повний текст джерелаEsta dissertação analisa o papel que a União Europeia (UE) deve ocupar no contexto da multipolaridade mundial. Não obstante o contexto adverso, procura analisar-se se a União Europeia conseguirá projetar os seus standards e valores fundamentais, de modo a ocupar uma posição cimeira em matéria de influência internacional. Este trabalho discute e compara os meios ao dispor da UE para exercer influência regulatória e projetar preferências sociais noutras zonas geográficas de influência. Pode fazê-lo através de mecanismos de mercado - "efeito Bruxelas" -, de acordos bilaterais e de jurisprudência emanada do Tribunal de Justiça da União Europeia (TJUE). Existe consenso quanto à importância do “efeito Bruxelas” e da jurisprudência do TJUE na influência da União a nível global. Contudo, no tocante aos Acordos bilaterais coexistem opiniões discordantes. A análise pormenorizada, comparativa e crítica efetuada acerca do conteúdo do Acordo Global de Investimento UE-China, permite identificar e compreender em que questões a UE, ao utilizar Acordos bilaterais, consegue afirmar-se enquanto líder global. Conclui-se que a UE consegue “exportar” muito da sua regulamentação interna através do “efeito Bruxelas”, mas apenas algumas preferências sociais por meio dos acordos bilaterais.
This dissertation focuses on both global multi-polarity and the role the European Union (EU) should play in it, despite adverse conditions. To what extent does the EU succeed in exporting its standards and core values, in order to achieve an upper position in the international sphere of influence. This research paper analyses and compares available tools the EU may use to exercise regulatory influence and project social preferences: market mechanisms (i.e., the “Brussels effect”), bilateral agreements and the European jurisprudence from the Court of Justice. The relevance of both the “Brussels effect” and the jurisprudence of the European Union Court on EU influence at a global level are consensual. However, regarding bilateral agreements, dissenting opinions coexist. A detailed, comparative and critical analysis of the EU-China Comprehensive Agreement on Investment is performed at several levels, aiming to identify and understand in which matters the European Union can assert itself as a world leader through bilateral agreements. It is concluded that the European Union manages to “export” much of its regulation through the “Brussels effect”, but only a few social preferences through its bilateral agreements.

Повний текст джерелаIn this thesis, we are interested in understanding how social entrepreneurs create value. Our goal is to model the process of value creation that we observed on a short supply chain project through an action research methodology. The sociology of translation and discourse analysis have been used to take into account the complexity of the definition, the perception and the process of sharing the value of a social enterprise project. We want to demonstrate that value creation in social entrepreneurship is an interactive, dynamic and complex translation process. It takes into account a multitude of visions and representations on the satisfaction of the needs of each stakeholder that will affect not only the design and the implementation of economic activity, but also their social and environmental impact. We have observed that social entrepreneurs construct the value of their project by identifying a social need, or by committing themselves to a societal ideal that they will incorporate into their values on a personal scale. This adoption process will determine the intentionality of their entrepreneurial action, the sustainability of which will depend on the support of their network and the overall coherence of the organization itself. We therefore proposed, at the field level, the improvement of a heuristic tool to support value creation and, at the theoretical level, a framework for understanding social entrepreneurship based on the actions of entrepreneurs and the perception of their stakeholders
López, Lomelí Miguel Angel. "Global, local and glocal brands in emerging markets: sources of brand value and brand purchase likelihood." Doctoral thesis, Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, 2016. http://hdl.handle.net/10803/399555.
Повний текст джерелаThis doctoral dissertation aims to address three main Research Questions: RQ (1) What are the antecedents that enhance local brand purchase likelihood in emerging markets (EMs), and are there specific factors for food and clothing brands? RQ (2) How can brands present in the market be classified into Global, Local and Glocal based on consumer perceptions, and are the results of these consumer-based categorisations similar to the categorisations based on objective criteria? RQ (3) Is the relationship between previously-identified brand antecedents and brand-purchase likelihood similar for global, local and glocal brands competing in the same category, or different for each type of brand? A gap in the literature has been identified regarding these questions and this research work aims to provide insights into these relationships. The first essay examines the antecedents of the brand purchase likelihood for local brands. The second essay examines how consumer perceptions of brand categorisation differ from the standard categorisations found in the literature, and the third essay examines how these antecedents positively influence the brand purchase likelihood of the different types of brands, and if there is a moderating role in these relationships. The findings of these three essays suggest the following: in study 1 of essay 1, three factors positively influence local food-brand purchase likelihood and also show that, for younger consumers, an additional factor is present. In study 2 of essay 1, five factors are positively related with local clothing-brand purchase likelihood. Essay 2 provides a categorisation of some leading brands sold in the Mexican market into global, local and glocal, based on consumer perspective. The findings suggest that there are relevant differences in the results of this categorisation of brands vs. the traditional objective approaches found in the literature. In essay 3 some antecedents are positively related with brand purchase likelihood, and, in addition, relevant to all brand categories. Our results suggest that the type of brand moderates some of these relationships. All these surveys were conducted among Mexican consumers and data analysed with statistical tests and Structural Equation Modelling (SEM). Our research work contributes to the current academic body of knowledge by highlighting the following areas:1, by combining theories from different streams to develop and test a comprehensive model of drivers of brand purchase likelihood. 2, by developing a typology to measure four types of brands by extending Steenkamp and De Jong’s theory to the branding context. 3, by hypothesising and testing the moderating role of brand type on the effects of these theoretically-grounded drivers of purchase likelihood. All of the above takes place within an emerging-market context. In addition, our research work contributes to the field of management by providing additional insight for brand-managers in emerging markets in the development of sustainable branding and marketing strategies, in order to help them succeed in a globally competitive environment.

Повний текст джерелаMy thesis is about global value chains and international trade.Technological progress and lower communication costs have foster the fragmentation of the process of production across countries and sectors and the expansion of global value chains. This new organization led to major changes in international trade flows and a growing interconnectedness of economies.The objective of this thesis is to study the impact of the organization of global value chains on international trade either at the macroeconomic level (countries’ comparative advantages) or microeconomic (firm performances).This thesis is organized on three chapters. The first chapter assesses the impact of global value chains on the comparative advantages of countries based on value added trade data.In this first chapter, I investigate the organization of global value chains based on comparative advantages. I show that comparative advantages are different when computed using value added trade data compared to gross trade data, which leads to a different sectoral specialization in a global value chain. The identification of the determinants of comparative advantages shows the importance of the quality of institutions, its impact is greater than traditional factors like labor or capital.The two last chapters study global value chains through plants in the aircraft industry in France, in the region Midi-Pyrénées Aquitaine.The second chapter provides empirical evidence of the impact of outsourcing and its origin on plant level performance in the aircraft sector based on panel data from 2006 to 2011. Specifically, I study the impact of the localization of outsourcing and show that, in average, plants that outsource their activities both domestically and internationally exhibit a higher productivity level, compared to plants not outsourcing or outsourcing only domestically. Quantile regressions shows that this effect is higher for lower productive plants.The last chapter describes the impact of the 2007-2008 financial crisis on plants on the aircraft sector in France. I identify two types of plants, generic outsourcers, producing standardized goods, and contractual outsourcers, producing customized goods. I show that generic outsourcers were more resilient during the crisis than contractual ones. Digitization, which reduces coordination costs and exporting activities, which permits to diversify their markets, explain part of the resilience of generic outsourcers to the crisis impact

Повний текст джерелаThe most recent phase of globalization, the so-called Global Value Chains (GVCs), is dated at the beginning of the 1990s. The birth of the World Trade Organization brought down many trade barriers and led to liberalization in areas like telecommunications, financial services, and information technologies. It meant the emergence of new business models that built on new opportunities to develop comparative advantages. With the opening of new markets, the technical revolution in IT and communications, and the closer harmonization of economic models worldwide, trade became much more than just a simple exchange of merchandise across borders. It developed into a constant flow of investment, of technologies, of goods for processing and business services. This is what has been called the "International Supply Chain". The key characteristic of this phenomenon is the increasing trade in final and intermediate goods among countries. Intermediate goods generated the network production structure of international trade and with it the exposure to new policy challenges that are not captured and fully understand by bilateral trade statistics. The existence of the international trade network, linking countries not only on the consumption side but also on production, makes the value-added content of trade to differ from gross exports. Nevertheless, it is precisely domestic value added the primary object of economic interest because it determines economic activity and the overall employment level in a country. The main question, therefore, is whether the changes in the organization of world trade should lead to a revision on our Economic intuitions. This is the purpose of this thesis, in which I review many pressing economic topics and hypotheses, and connect them with the global production patterns.This thesis covers the topics of (i) the trade-enhancing role of Free Trade Agreements (FTAs) and Information and Communication Technologies (ICT, "captured as a border effect"), (ii) value-added exports elasticities, and (iii) trade imbalances. While results for many countries are reported, I pay particular attention to the European countries. Broadly speaking, results show that (i) FTAs increase bilateral trade by 54% on average after 10 or more years, for both final goods and intermediate inputs. The border effect has become less binding over time, increasing trade in final goods an astounding 443%, relative to domestic trade since 1970, while the rise has been 195% for intermediate inputs. They also provide evidence that the trade effect of FTAs has strengthened over time. (ii) The implications of neglecting the GVC dimension for the value-added export elasticity are that it is not constant over time and lower than for gross exports. An important contribution here is to put in place a tractable framework that links changes in value-added exports to changes in the actual flow of final and intermediate goods. This makes easier to compute other tools that have been developed before in the literature like GVC Real Effective Exchange Rates (REERs). (iii) Using a value-added approach to study trade imbalances shows that we still do not have a full understanding of the causes and consequences of these imbalances and that GVC only makes it more challenging. Therefore, I disentangle the different components of the trade balance dynamics (trade performance and demand growth) while incorporating the international input-output production network linkages. Finally, I shed some light on to what extent internal devaluations are sufficient to offset the intra-Euro nominal exchange rigidity
Lange, Silma. "Global leadership effectiveness| The predictive value of cognitively oriented global leadership competencies." Thesis, San Jose State University, 2015. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=1593186.
Повний текст джерелаGlobal leadership is becoming increasingly important in multinational companies as well as in non-profit and public sectors. The purpose of this study was to investigate what makes a global leader effective, by identifying key predictors of global leadership effectiveness. The predictors investigated in this study included a combined measure of overall intercultural global leadership competency and selected cognitively oriented competencies: nonjudgmentalness, inquisitiveness, tolerance of ambiguity and cosmopolitanism. The sample consisted of 171 undergraduate and graduate students from a large university. Linear and multiple regression analyses were conducted to identify the ability of the competencies to predict effectiveness. Inquisitiveness was the only cognitive competency found to successfully predict global leadership effectiveness. While no effect was found for overall intercultural global leadership competency, exploratory analyses revealed two other individual competencies as predictors: self-confidence and self-identity. The results of the study suggest that inquisitiveness is a key competency indicating cognitive flexibility that enable individuals to adapt to the situation at hand. Furthermore, self-identity and self-confidence likely enables individuals to participate and display leadership skills in novel and challenging situations.

Thesis, Lorient, 2019. http://www.theses.fr/2019LORIL547.
Повний текст джерелаThe advances in digital technologies (DT) are transforming consumer behavior and how they consume. They no longer accept the role of a passive consumer and shift the power from suppliers to empowered consumers. It is now more than ever a challenge for marketers to know how to meet consumer’s need to gain more control and for live personalized experience. Customer perceived value of the offer is a priority to compete. Today’s DT are often used to enhance value of the experience perceived by the customer, but, does DT really enrich the consumer experience? Literature suggests that not much research has been conducted on this topic. Most studies focus on technology adoption and intrinsic perceived value of DT. The rare studies about DT’s effects on consumer experience highlight the existence of a diversity of effects. Such research focuses on one-time use of DT, mostly during extraordinary consumption (museum visit). Based on the approach of perceived value framework, this research examines the effect of the regular use of two DT in sports (QS: quantified-self; VC: virtual community) on the active sportsmen regulatory experience by the mediating role of empowerment. We carried out an experiment involving 1833 participants. Results show that the use of QS influences neither perceived value of experience nor consumer empowerment rather even tends to negatively influence intention to pursue active sport. In contrast, the use of VC indirectly influences intention to pursue the activity by enriching the perceived value of the experience by the mediating role of empowerment. To conclude, DT can enrich the perceived value of experience and positively influence behavioral intention by increasing perceived empowerment

Повний текст джерелаThe purpose of this thesis is to determine the effect of environmental standards on trade inTextile-Apparel products and to analyse the strategies adopted by developing countries, withspecific reference to Tunisia. Voluntary and mandatory environmental requirements havemainly affected the textile industry and could replace traditional instruments of protectionismafter the dismantling of the Multifibre Arrangement in 2005. The result of statistical andeconometric analysis indicates a positive effect of environmental certification on exports ofcertain apparel products towards the European market denoting the importance of this newtrend. The study is focused upon the Tunisian firms’ positioning in the global value chain ofTextile-Apparel industry and strategies which they will have to implement in order to be ableto meet environmental standards. Our results show the difficulty of Tunisian firms to besuccessful in industrial upgrading. Environmental requirements heighten their dependence onEuropean suppliers of the textile industry and prevent the transition from the originalequipment assembly to original Equipment Manufacturer. Lastly, the thesis discusses theeffectiveness of “Tunisian Ecolabel” program and the determinants for adopting theenvironmental certifications by Tunisian firms’ of the Textile-Apparel industry
Kohl, Martina. "Social networks as glocal products: The case of Facebook." Master's thesis, NSBE - UNL, 2013. http://hdl.handle.net/10362/9815.
Повний текст джерелаThe appropriateness of following a globally standardized or locally adapted strategy in global marketing has been subject of an on-going debate for several decades. However, little research exists of how to follow standardization and adaptation (s/a) simultaneously and to take advantage of both strategies, in brief how to follow a GloCal approach. Thus, the purpose of this case study is to generate theoretical insights of how to follow a GloCal strategy, based on the case of Facebook. After reviewing critical points of current knowledge in the field of s/a, qualitative research via open-ended in-depth interviews from a sample of Facebook users from 16 different countries was conducted. The outcome supports that common needs and individual usage behavior of Facebook users favor a strategy that is simultaneously standardized and adapted, within different aspects of the product element. Results are presented narratively intertwined with theory and prior study results. Findings reveal that Facebook is following a GloCal approach. By abstracting from the case of Facebook to a general level theoretical insights are gained of how to follow s/a simultaneously. This work contributes to existing theory, since it is a starting point to close the research gap of how to follow s/a simultaneously in international marketing. Additionally, it exhibits the significance and importance of the GloCal approach. Regarding practitioners this work provides guidance on how to create synergies, while considering differences within their international marketing strategies.

Denna fallstudie har analyserat kursdesignen, utfallet och institutets organisationsstruktur för kompetensutveckling baserad på en 15-faktors ramverk och relevanta lärteorier. Kursutvärderingar, dataanalyser, gruppintervjuer och frågeformulär var de undersökningsmetoder som användes för att samla data för denna fallstudie. Studien visar att flera viktiga faktorer för kompetensutveckling underlättar lärandet av GVC och LCA på institutet. Det framgår däremot att den nuvarande kursdesignen och institutetss begränsning av tillgång till data förhindrar goda läranderesultat för kursdeltagarna. Flera förslag om kursdesign och organisationsstruktur presenteras, baserat på resultaten från denna studie.
Esta tesis de maestría busca investigar cómo un instituto argentino apoya a sus miembros para aprender las Cadenas Globales de Valor (CGV) y la Análisis del Ciclo de Vida (ACV). Dos metodologías importantes que pueden usarse como base para formar estrategias sostenibles basadas en análisis de productos o servicios. Se realiza un curso de CGV y ACV a los iembros del instituto que deseen aprenderlos. Este estudio de caso ha analizado el diseño del curso, el resultado y la estructura organizacional del instituto para el desarrollo profesional basado en un marco de 15 factores y teorías de aprendizaje relevantes. Las evaluaciones de los cursos, el análisis de datos, las entrevistas grupales y los cuestionarios fueron los métodos de investigación utilizados para recopilar datos para este estudio de caso. La tesis revela que en el instituto se pueden encontrar varios factores importantes para el desarrollo profesional que facilitan el aprendizaje de CGV y ACV. Sin embargo, el diseño actual del curso y la restricción de acceso del instituto a los datos impiden buenos resultados de aprendizaje para los participantes del curso. Se presentaron varias sugerencias sobre el diseño del curso y la estructura organizacional, basadas en los hallazgos de este estudio.

One of Company X's many services is to refurbish systems at regular intervals during their use. Quick turnaround times are of the utmost importance both to keep Company X's costs low and to ensure the systems are returned to perform their services in the field as rapidly as possible. This research had two distinct elements in service to accelerated turnaround times: 1) Improving inventory management practices to align with the need for replacements for failed parts to reduce cycle times, and 2) Diagnosing the reasons for and developing mitigations against failures in the blind mating of two connectors. Regarding the first element of the research performed, Company X hypothesized that improving the inventory management system would yield shorter cycle times. In order to test this hypothesis, part failure and inventory histories needed to be compared to confirm if parts were not in stock at the time of failure. A model was developed to analyze both of these history files but the poor quality of the data precluded accurate conclusions from being drawn. Once the data input methods have controls placed on them, the model will serve to accurately represent the failure rates and types of failures of all parts, allowing for proper stocking of inventory needed to service these failures. An investigation of process failure rates and their impact on cycle time was also conducted. This analysis included quantifying how many times each operation was performed, at which steps failures occurred or were noticed most, and how much time was required to complete each operation and service each failure. This analysis ultimately yielded the generation of a diagnostic tool with a flexibility that allowed simultaneous analysis to be performed on over 1,100 operations. One of the key insights generated by using this tool was that the majority of failures are found at late-stage inspections, highlighting that improving the thoroughness of early-stage inspections could prevent the necessity of substantial rework to remedy the issues found late in the process. With respect to the second element of the research performed, an understanding of why and how connectors were failing was sought out. Through observing the process and analyzing the historical data detailing the connector's failure modes, multiple explanations for the failures and related solutions resulted. The first failure mode was loose connections, for which a tool was shortened to increase the operator's ease of accessing the connector to properly apply torque and secure the connection. The other modes of failure were caused due to connector misalignment, for which a bracket was redesigned as an auto-alignment feature to aid in the mating process, and operator deviations from the work instructions were addressed as they pertained to connector failures. The combination of these actions are expected to yield an annual savings of $100,000, net of costs.
