Lean Supply Chain Management

With any new work, the question that always has to be answered is—why? Why a new book on supply chain management and procurement? Why another book about lean systems? Why should we care? Is there anything more important that we can learn from the concept of lean supply chain management? Why a new book on supply chain management? The answer is simply because the works that exist tend to tr…

Managing the Politics of Reform

After decades of research, discussion, and debate, economists have finally acknowledged the importance, if not the primacy, of institutions as the bedrock of sustained growth and development. While policies can make a difference, recent econometric studies indicate that much will depend on the institutions that govern a country (Rodrik, Subramanian, and Trebbi 2002). Institutions, in this c…

Advances in Monetary Policy and Macroeconomics

In September 2005 we organized a conference at the University of Cassino, Italy, the aim of which was to explore ‘The Keynesian Legacy in Macro- economic Modelling’. In the postwar period, macroeconomic modelling of developed economies was mainly rooted in Keynesian theory up to the 1970s, when the failure of applied models to deal with stagflation led to a shift in economic theory towards …

Essays on Keynesian and Kaldorian Economics

Keynes’s General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money is undoubtedly regarded as the most important book on economics in the twentieth century, and this view would be shared, I think, by those who are wholly opposed to its teaching as well as by its adherents. Nearly 50 years after its appearance controversy still rages around its basic ideas and prescriptions, and I do not think that a…

Microeconometrics Methods and Applications

This book provides a detailed treatment of micro econometric analysis, the analysis of individual-level data on the economic behavior of individuals or firms. This type of analysis usually entails applying regression methods to cross-section and panel data. The book aims at providing the practitioner with a comprehensive coverage of statistical methods and their application in modern applied m…

The book inevitably draws on themes and analysis treated in the defence economics literature and r…

Organ Procurement and Preservation

The concept and understanding of brain death have evolved significantly over the past few decades. This entity has become more recognized as our ability to provide prolonged cardiovascular support to brain injured patients became more sophisticated. In parallel with these developments, organ transplantation became a reality with wider applications resulting in significant increase in demand…

Handbook of Procurement

Procurement represents a very large fraction of total economic activity. The value of public procurement transactions in EU countries is about 16 percent of their GDP, while in the United States it is around 20 percent.1 In the private sector, the value of transactions is even larger and is steadily increasing, due to the current trend towards outsourcing all non-core business activities. …

A great many trade books addressing an organization's relations with its suppliers have appeared recently. Perhaps the most advanced is the American Keiretsu by Burt and Michael Doyle (Homewood, Ill.: Business One Irwin, 1993). Whether these books stress early supplier involvement, partnerships, alliances, strategic procurement, or supply management, all these themes require and expressly s…

Why Do Governments Divest?

A review of the past 40 years reveals that economic policymaking has been profoundly influenced by two major phenomena. In the 1960s and 1970s, the Keynesian "revolution" made its debut on the stage of economic policy and determined the actions of policymakers in the Western world. The last two decades of the past millennium intum were influenced by the phenomenon of privatization. While the …

EU Public Procurement Law

Public procurement is a powerful exercise. It carries the aptitude of acquisition; it epitomizes economic freedom; it depicts the nexus of trade relations amongst economic operators; it represents the necessary process to deliver public services; it demonstrates strategic policy options. Public procurement as a discipline expands from a simple topic of the common market, to a multifaceted …

Public Procurement in the European Union

The regulation of public procurement in the European Union has been the cinderella of the European integration. Often neglected as a discipline of European law and policy, although directly relevant to the fundamental principles of the common market, public procurement has not received equal priority to other regulatory regimes by the Member States of the European Union. As one of the maj…

Contractor-led Procurement

Major clients of the construction industry have been found to organise construction work into fewer, but larger, contracts with more transfer of risk and responsibilities in response to a change from a sellers' market to a buyers' market, and facing a greater choice of procurement methods than ever before. Main contractors and consultants alike are moving towards multidisciplinary teams of…

Procurement has often been the dominant issue, with the plethora of “new” proc…

PUBLIC TECHNOLOGY PROCUREMENT AND INNOVATION

In this volume we discuss theory, evidence, and policy perspectives concerning the use of public technology procurement as an instrument of innovation policy. Public technology procurement (as defined in Chapter 1, part I), occurs when a public agency places an order for a product or system that does not yet exist, requiring technological innovation for the order to be met. The most extens…
