"France was interwar Poland's main ally, and the biggest source of the country's foreign investment. The two roles were closely connected: Paris used its position in Warsaw to win preferential treatment for its firms, while Polish authorities depended on France to finance their modernization policies and military spending. The relationship's asymmetric character bred conflict, and in the 1930s dissenting voices compared French actions in Poland to imperialism and colonial expansion. The book untangles the complex mix of economics, policy, and politics in Franco-Polish relations. Based on government and company-level sources, it evaluates the part played by French capital in Poland and discovers the mechanisms ruling French FDI and public loans. Exploring case studies of specific sectors and themes, it asks questions about the modernizing potential of FDI, interwar economic imperialism, the workings of asymmetric investment, and the interactions between investments and politics. Understanding the unequal footing of Warsaw and Paris, it goes beyond imperialistic interpretations, and examines the leeway available to the weaker partner of the relationship. The book contributes to economic history of Central and Eastern Europe, and, more generally, to our understanding of the position of peripheral countries in the interwar global system"--

"Gospodarka mie?dzynarodowa" to poje?cie bardzo szerokie, ro´z?norodnie definiowane, a w XXI w. coraz bardziej zloz?one. W niniejszym opracowaniu przyje?to, z?e jest to ksztaltuja?cy sie? etapami system powia?zan´ ekonomiczno-spoleczno-kulturowych, mie?dzy dynamicznie zmieniaja?cymi sie? uczestnikami o coraz bardziej skomplikowanych strukturach, kto´re stanowia? ogniwa mie?dzynarodowego procesu produkcji i wymiany do´br, uslug i idei. Proces ten obejmuje wszystkie pan´stwa oraz regiony a realizowany jest ro´wnoczes´nie na wielu poziomach: mikro-, mezo-, makro- i metaekonomicznym, kto´re wzajemnie na siebie oddzialywaja?. Celem Autorek bylo stworzenie zwartej bazy teoretyczno-koncepcyjnej, koniecznej do kompleksowej oceny zmian zachodza?cych w poszczego´lnych gospodarkach jak i systemie gospodarki s´wiatowej. Monografia to zaso´b podstawowych definicji, klasyfikacji, informacji o strukturach i mechanizmach, z´ro´dlach podstaw teoretycznych, kto´re moga? zostac´ wykorzystane jako baza do pogle?bionych badan´. Przedstawiono definicje i koncepcje odnosza?ce sie? do: polityki handlowej i inwestycyjnej; mie?dzynarodowej konkurencyjnos´ci gospodarek; rozwoju korporacji transnarodowych; znaczenia proceso´w globalizacji; ewolucji struktury instytucjonalnej gospodarki mie?dzynarodowej (w tym: GATT-WTO, Mie?dzynarodowy Fundusz Walutowy, Grupa Banku S´wiatowego). W opracowaniu zaprezentowano autorska? koncepcje? oceny mie?dzynarodowej konkurencyjnos´ci gospodarek na bazie modelu systemowego-zro´wnowaz?onego, akcentuja?cego znaczenie czterech poziomo´w budowania konkurencyjnos´ci (mikro-, mezo-, makro- i metaekonomiczny) oraz koniecznos´c´ kompleksowego jej badania z uwzgle?dnieniem konkurencyjnos´ci: bazowej (zasoby, potencjal), operacyjnej (zdolnos´ci, instrumenty), kompetencyjnej (kluczowe kompetencje, przewaga) oraz systemowej."-- Provided by publisher.

La transformation écologique n'a pas commencé. Malgré les innovations technologiques, les changements d'habitudes, les promesses des entreprises, les plans étatiques ou encore les COP, le monde, en 2023, n'a jamais autant consommé d'énergie fossile. Pourquoi tant de discours pour si peu de résultats ? N'y a-t-il rien de concret derrière ce verdissement qu'une majorité d'organisations et de citoyens appellent de leurs vœux ? La Chine et les États-Unis ont déjà amorcé un tournant industriel spectaculaire. Ils s'imposent en champions de l'économie verte et organisent notre dépendance. La France et l'Europe, elles, multiplient les ambitions et normes environnementales qui provoquent un retour de bâton populiste et anti-écologique. Nous cherchons encore comment transformer nos façons de produire, de consommer, d'habiter, de nous déplacer, de nous alimenter. Sans faire monter les colères. Tout en réaffirmant notre puissance industrielle et politique. Nous avons moins de trente ans pour accomplir notre transformation écologique. Ce livre donne le mode d'emploi pour y parvenir

Prompted by geostrategic rivalry and the war in Ukraine, COVID-19 and the climate transition, trade policy is increasingly being weaponized. This trend towards protectionist capture and retaliation is self-sabotaging and bad for growth. But there is another way.In this hard-hitting book, Ken Heydon offers alternatives to the trade weapon: the need for diplomatic carrots to accompany the sanctions stick; for resilience in supply chains rather than self-sufficiency through ill-advised reshoring and friend-shoring; for multilateral WTO remedies to rule breaking rather than unilateral penalties in the name of national sovereignty; and for direct action on environment and public health goals rather than the blunt tool of trade restriction.But, to restrain the damaging subordination of trade policy to other ends, governments must address the discontents of trade and do better at helping losers, adjusting to technological change and making the case for open markets. At stake are three decades of income gains from globalization and the ability to deal effectively with the climate transition and the next pandemic
