2 Jackall, Robert
Moral mazes : the world of corporate managers / Robert
Jackall.-- Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2010.
ix,294p. , 24cm.
ISBN : 9780199729883.
174.4 JAC 143617
This book presents an eye-opening account of how
corporate managers think the world works, and how big
organizations shape moral consciousness. The author
explains how a bureaucratic language designed to dull
resistance to wrongdoing has been developed, how the
tight chain of command reduces the possibility that
someone within the organization will become a whistle
blower, and how the bureaucratic organization gangs up to
achieve its ends, and fights like a cornered animal for
its survival. It is a book for anyone interested in how
large organizations function, or concerned with the moral
laxity in public life.

(Cross cultural psychology series , 3).
ISBN : 9780761910299.
305.3 HOF 143614
This book is the in-depth discussion of the masculinity
dimension, and how it can help us to understand
differences amongst cultures. The author begins with a
general explanation of the masculinity dimension, and
discusses how it illuminates broad features of different
cultures. Parts Two, Three and Four apply the dimension
more specifically to gender (and gender identity),
sexuality (and sexual behavior), and religion, probably
the most influential variable of all. It closes with a
synthesizing statement about cultural values as they are
linked to sexuality, gender and religion.

318p. , 22 cm.
ISBN : 9788131606704.
305.800954 BEH 143592
The papers included in this book primarily focus on
contradicting perspectives, competing interests, and
emerging outcomes, when the relation between India’s
tribes and their resource perceptions shifts along the
line of corporate induced development projects.
Precisely, it is a compendium of issues related to
development induced displacement. In a broad sense, the
relation between India-s ecology and economy has been
examined, with reference to specific contexts in
development practices where resource perception and
utilization are contested by traditional and commercial
users.

confront China-s innovation economy, setting out the
cultural and historical context, the strategies that form
the basis for this evolution, and the measures China has
at its disposal to protect intellectual property.

motivational dynamics during identity crisis, using

It is commonplace for today-s transnational enterprises
to undertake political risk analysis when choosing
foreign markets and creating entry strategies. Despite
this, non-market elements of corporate strategy are less
well researched than the traditional economics-based
perspectives. Providing comprehensive and leading edge
overviews of current scholarship, this companion surveys
the current state of the field and provides a basis for
improving our understanding of the non-market
environment, encouraging new insights to improve
strategies for enhancing a firm-s performance and
legitimacy.
