Michael Porter is recognized as one of the top authorities on corporate strategy and business competition. The historical review of strategic management clearly shows that Porter’s research has bridged up two general paradigms (before and after the 1980s) thus helping both researchers and practitioners to better understand unanticipated global changes. His two generic strategies: costs and diversification, the two interdependent strategic options, are key in the context of the competitiveness of orthodox microeconomic theory. This is where Porter went further, constructing a popular value chain concept that provides the ability to disaggregate the key activities of business process in creating products and services in terms of cost analysis and value creation.
This book is a collection of seven interconnected chapters that provides a coherent understanding of Michael Porter’s contribution to the field of strategic management. It addresses key changes and challenges in the global business environment. The value chain concept has become highly applicable in both theory and practice. In the book, the authors offer an original interpretation of the Porters’ research on strategic management in order to unravel or simplify his key theoretical concepts. It will be of interest to researchers, academics, practitioners, and students in the fields of strategic management and international business.

This book contributes to a better understanding of entrepreneurship in transition economies. Current literaturereflects the more traditional schools of thought on entrepreneurship, which areinfluenced by the Western perspective, and fail to fully address the scenarioin transition economies. There is a broad consensus among academics, policymakers, and practitioners that a fundamental cause of difficulties experiencedby most economies in transition has been the fact that reform has not been accompaniedby the creation of new, private businesses, and particularly SMEs. This isespecially evident in states created in Europe after the dissolution of theSoviet Union where many barriers, which were inherited from the old system,remain in place, thus inhibiting entrepreneurial progress in these countriesdespite a favorable political and economic environment. The contributions featuredin this book focus on how much progress has been achieved so far with regard tothese aspects, as well as identify which current barriers and issues still needto be resolved. Themes include innovation performance, financing, venturecapital, educational factors, and entrepreneurial learning.
