Inhaltsangabe
The recent downturn in the Asian economies has been blamed on many different factors. In this work, Michael Backman analyzes a number of dubious business practices that are endemic in the region and which he believes have played a significant part in Asia's downfall. Among the problems he identifies are cronyism, a corrupt business media, inadequate legal protection, questionable business practices by the big six accounting firms in Asia, and political patronage (including a revealing account of the Lippo Group's donations to Bill Clinton's campaign funds). He concludes with a discussion of whether Asia has learnt its lesson and an assessment of how far recent legislation will go to wipe out corruption.

Asian Eclipse: Exposing the Dark Side of Business in Asia
Anbieter: Bookbot, Prague, Tschechien
Verkäuferbewertung 5 von 5 Sternen
Softcover. Zustand: As New. Leichte Abnutzungen. Conducting business in Asia often involves navigating a landscape filled with cronies, corruption, and conglomerates, as highlighted by author Michael Backman. In his exploration, he unveils the pervasive bribery and corruption within the Eastern corporate world. By examining the essence of "Asianness," he reveals a complex business culture influenced by Confucian values, where bankruptcy is seen as a dishonor to ancestors, and the media faces threats for covering sensitive topics. Patriarchal management and nepotism dominate, frequently leading to costly family disputes, while concepts like auditing and corporate governance are still emerging. Through a detailed analysis of various Asian markets, Backman exposes the structural flaws that precipitated the economic crises of 1997-1998, arguing that the real "miracle" is that such a collapse didn't occur sooner. This comprehensive work serves as an essential guide for anyone interested in Asian business, yet remains accessible to general readers. Each chapter concludes with insightful case studies that shed light on dubious corporate practices in the region, including notable instances involving President Soeharto and contributors to Clinton's 1996 campaign. Backman's firsthand experiences enrich the narrative, showcasing his extensive knowledge gained from years spent in Asia. Artikel-Nr. 4a6116df-905e-47a0-8334-73396feb2a29
