By the end of Diocletian's reign in the opening years of the fourth century, the pagan world had collapsed into the arms of a multicultural religious movement which had spread from the eastern Mediterranean. These were the "mystery religions" which had been in competition with one another for a century. By the time of Constantine, they had spread everywhere within the empire.

When Elizabeth ascended the throne in 1558, England was the laughing stock of Europe. Economic, political, and religious calamities were numerous, and Elizabeth endured constant criticism. But by the end of her 45-year reign, England was one of the world's mightiest nations.

Elizabeth I CEO is an indispensable guide for today's business managers and leaders. It is also an inspiring listen for those taking their first steps up the corporate ladder, or those who simply love history. Nelson Runger's narration gives a renewed energy to Elizabeth's lessons, which are as relevant today as they were four centuries ago.

The Dutch East India Company, officially the United East India Company (Dutch: Vereenigde Oost Indische Compagnie; VOC), was a megacorporation created in the early 17th century by a government-directed merger of many competing Dutch trade services.

Scoppiato alla fine del 1892, il caso politico-finanziario della Banca Romana resta uno dei più memorabili scandali istituzionali di tutti i tempi. Portò a galla le magagne di un'intera classe dirigente, minacciò di travolgere personaggi del calibro di Crispi e Giolitti, culminò in un processo oscillante tra il melodramma e la farsa, concluso da un verdetto surreale. D'altra parte, fu denunciato da una minoranza parlamentare agguerrita, mobilitò l'opinione pubblica, mise in luce non solo le debolezze ma anche le risorse della democrazia rappresentativa.

Two opposing narratives vie to explain the strategic future of Europe, one geopolitical and one economic, and both center on the same resource: natural gas. In The Bridge, Thane Gustafson, an expert on Russian oil and gas, argues that the political rivalries that capture the lion's share of media attention must be viewed alongside multiple business interests and differences in economic ideologies. With a dense network of pipelines linking Europe and Russia, natural gas serves as a bridge that unites the region through common interests.

No one knew it when their experiment began, but without any particular genius or acumen, the motley cast of billionaires and hucksters behind the modern Premier League struck gold. Pretty soon, everyone wanted to try their luck, from Russian oligarchs to Emirati sheikhs, American tycoons, and Asian Tiger titans. Some succeeded beyond their wildest dreams. Some lost everything. Today, players are sold for tens of millions, clubs are valued in the billions, and games are beamed out to nearly 200 countries, all while the league struggles to preserve its English soul.

Der Niedergang von Opel und KarstadtQuelle, die Stagnation der Credit-Suisse-Gruppe und der Deutschen Bank haben eine gemeinsame Erklärung: falsches Marketing. Diese Unternehmen wenden fast ausschließlich US-amerikanische Formen des Marketings an. Das Ergebnis sind Pleiten und Unternehmenszusammenschlüsse. Diese Denkschule der Kommunikation wird Europas Unternehmen ruinieren, wenn sie nicht eigene Modelle verwenden. Klaus J. Stöhlkers Konzept der Euro-Kommunikation basiert auf bewährten und modernen, zielgruppenorientierten Instrumenten der Information und Kommunikation.
