Family business debates: Multidimensional perspectives across countries, continents and geo-political frontiers

Abstract

Family Business Debates provides a novel, ground-breaking approach to diverse and contemporary topics in current business management research, focusing on family enterprises to study both the positive and negative aspects of such commercial structures. In Family Business Debates: Multidimensional Perspectives Across Countries, Continents and Geo-political Frontiers the authors propose an exploratory journey in 18 stages towards one of the founding territories, and paradoxically less studied, of our economic system, the family business. The interaction of two complex systems, such as family and business, is addressed in this very interesting book, which first analyzes this confluence from a philosophical and sociological perspective and then illustrates the development of this business model in various geographies. The result? An essential text for those who want to understand the dynamics of family business, either for academic purposes or as support for their professional practice. – Alejandro Javier Rosa, Partner in PwC Argentina
