Financial Times Management

This book explores the route to success of small, localized textile and clothing industries in Europe. Taking this sector as an example, the authors examine the themes of entrepreneurship, small firms, strategy and policy-making, and the rejuvenation of mature industries in the new European Single Market. It considers the role of the individual proprietor, the firm, the sector and inter-firm collaboration, showing how interaction can have great significance for long-term survival. This book should be of interest to academics, postgraduates and senior undergraduates in business studies, social and political science, economics, geography, and clothing and textile courses; policy makers/chief executives in clothing textile companies.

The Shaping of Environmental Policy in France (Contemporary France, 6)

Drawing on an extensive range of political, legal and sociological materials, the author presents and evaluates environmental policy-making in France at a time when environmental problems are growing in complexity and gravity.  He highlights the range of inputs to the policy process – including popular movements, green parties, interest group representation, EU legislation and international treaties – and evaluates the diverse nature of the outcomes which lead him to conclude that because new developments involve not only changes in policy content but also adaptation of policy style, environmental demands are progressively changing the shape of politics itself.
