| Omschrijving | This course provides students with analytical tools to study and compare market and business environments in different countries. Such analytical tools will comprise both 'hard' and 'soft' perspectives to understand the nature of different national business environments. In the first half of the course, the students will study relevant literature on comparative country analysis. In the second half, which is more practical, they will compare investment conditions in two countries. In the practical part, students will first compare countries on key macroeconomic indicators to assess strategic market conditions. Subsequently, they will approach the problem from a comparative business systems perspective focusing on institutional influences on business systems. Such a combined analysis will help deliver managers and businesses a complete picture of market and business environments in different countries. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
