IEBM Handbook of Economics: International Encyclopaedia of Business and Management

IEBM Handbook of Economics offers a comprehensive and authoritative analysis of the major economic issues of our day. It provides an important reference work and learning tool for students of business and management, economists among them. Comprehensive and global in scope and content, this handbook has been written with explicit recognition of the centrality of business activity and its management to the operation and performance of a modern economy.

  • The entries included in the IEBM Handbook of Economics reflect the progress that has been made among economists, many of them working in business schools, in bridging this gap.

  • With contributions from leading international academics, this handbook covers systems of economic organization, systems of economic thought, business enterprise, industrial organization, economic institutions, and notable economists.
