Un mundo radicalmente nuevo está surgiendo de las cenizas del antiguo sistema económico basado en la nación. En la actualidad, para tener éxito es necesario actuar en el escenario global y aprovechar los nuevos impulsores del poder y el crecimiento económicos.El próximo escenario global nos revela ese mundo posglobalizado y nos muestra qué debemos hacer en este nuevo escenario para tener éxito como empresa, como nación y como individuos. El legendario estratega de los negocios Kenichi Ohmae, que en 1990 predijo el surgimiento y el éxito de la globalización y acuñó esta palabra, sintetiza las nuevas tendencias en la primera visión coherente de la economía global y desentraña sus implicaciones para la política, los negocios y el éxito personal.El autor demuestra por qué las teorías económicas del pasado están derrumbándose, al mismo tiempo que saca a la luz un nuevo mundo impulsado por las «regiones-Estado» y las nuevas plataformas económicas, y ya no por los Estados-nación o las economías tradicionales. Presenta una convincente visión sobre las implicaciones de una complejidad sin precedentes, sobre el nuevo trabajo del mañana y los centros de crecimiento geográfico y sobre el papel de los líderes en un mundo verdaderamente sin fronteras. Este libro no sólo explica qué ha sucedido, sino que ofrece una guía para desenvolvernos en el mundo que comienza a revelarse.

Much has been written about globalization as an economic and political concept. The academic debate looks forward for explanations about the historical roots and development of this emerging phenomenon where the Nation-State’s evolved into a system where nations are ruled by the dynamics of global interdependence. Globalization in the new era is characterized as a process where geographical, political and cultural borders tend to dissolve. The Westphalia notion of sovereignty capitulates against the principle of political subordination as integration of local power ensuring national legitimacy.

This book received the Enrique Alcaraz research award in 2010. This volume derives from the COMINTER-SIMULNEG research project which aims at designing a pragmatic model for the analysis of intercultural communication between Spaniards and Britons, as well as developing a teaching methodology for cultural awareness based on computer simulation of real business settings. Contributions to this volume focus on three main issues: (a) explaining intercultural communication; (b) research on intercultural business communication; (c) the use of simulation and gaming methodology for the acquisition of communicative and cross-cultural competence in business settings. This book adopts an interdisciplinary approach to the study and practice of intercultural business communication, borrowing concepts from social anthropology, social cognition, cognitive linguistics, and intercultural pragmatics.

Aquest llibre del líder de Convergència Democràtica de Catalunya conté alhora una reflexió i una proposta. L'autor convida, d'una banda, a repensar la trajectòria històrica, l'abast i el futur del catalanisme en aquest inici del nou segle. I, de l'altra, conscient de la necessitat de cercar una sortida que permeti superar la fase actual del projecte autonòmic, proposa els camins que han de permetre, en un horitzó no llunyà, que Catalunya pugui exercir el dret a decidir sobre el seu futur. L'obra és també una invitació a cercar, a través d'allò que anomena la Casa Gran del catalanisme, el màxim consens nacional que faci possible l'avenç del país -tant des del punt de vista nacional com del de l'estat del benestar- cap a un futur millor. Aquest llibre constitueix, doncs, una de les a-portacions conceptuals i una de les propostes més sòlides que hagi fet, en els darrers anys, un dirigent català amb una alta responsabilitat política.

Phenomena such as the Covid-19 pandemic, climate change, or the surge of political populism show that the current phase of accelerated globalization is over. New concepts are needed in order to respond to this exhaustion of the global project: the volume scrutinizes these responses in the aesthetic realm and under a "post-global" banner, while incorporating alternative, non-Western epistemologies and literatures of the post-colonial Global South.
