Die politische und wirtschaftliche Öffnung Indiens, Chinas, der Türkei und der Staaten Osteuropas haben zu einer veränderten Wettbewerbssituation auf dem Weltmarkt geführt. Bereits heute gelten diese Staaten als attraktive Beschaffungsmärkte insbesondere für europäische Unternehmen. Wer jedoch die internationalen Beschaffungsmärkte und ihre Gesetzmäßigkeiten nicht kennt, für den kann Global Sourcing zur Kostenfalle werden. Dass Unternehmen trotz Risiken dennoch erfolgreich Global Sourcing betreiben können, beweist Gerd Kerkhoff in seinem Buch. Er zeigt auf, welche Güter und Dienstleistungen sich für ein Global Sourcing eignen und stellt die wichtigsten Beschaffungsmärkte und ihre Stärken vor. Konkrete Beispiele erläutern, wie die internationale Beschaffung erfolgreich ausgerichtet wird.

Why are there so many crises in the world? Is it true that the global system is today riskier and more dangerous than in past decades? Do we have any tools at our disposal to bring these problems under control, to reduce the global system's proneness to instability? These are the tantalizing questions addressed in this book. Using a variety of demographic, economic, financial, social, and political indicators, the book demonstrates that the global system has indeed become an 'architecture of collapse' subject to a variety of shocks. An analysis of the global financial crisis of 2008, the bilateral relationship between the U.S. and China, and the European sovereign debt crisis illustrates how the complexity and tight coupling of system components creates a situation of precarious stability and periodic disruption. This state of affairs can only be improved by enhancing the shock-absorbing components of the system, especially the capacity of states and governments to act, and by containing the shock-diffusing mechanisms. In particular, those related to phenomena such as trade imbalances, portfolio investment, cross-border banking, population ageing, and income and wealth inequality.
