GOODRICH, James A.
Business development strategies : an important comparative dimension - New York : Marcel Dekker, 1989
Government efforts to work more closely with businesses are increasingly seen as important, as we have moved from discussions about industrial policy to concerns about international competitiveness. However our ideas about these subjects suffer from a lack of a comparative perspective or an understanding of how different nations go about this process. The comparative study of national strategies to stimulate business or to upgrade a country's industrial portfolio can produce useful results. Writers with experience in the comparative administration field can make a contribution here, especially through their exploration of the relationship between bureaucracy and society, which sigficantly defines and constrains these strategic possibilties. To do this, comparative administration researchers will need to focus more specifically on business enterprises as well as public agencies involved in business development
