Описание: A comprehensive analysis of European craft guilds through eight centuries of economic historyGuilds ruled many crafts and trades from the Middle Ages to the Industrial Revolution, and have always attracted debate and controversy. They were sometimes viewed as efficient institutions that guaranteed quality and skills. But they also excluded competitors, manipulated markets, and blocked innovations.
Did the advantages of guilds outweigh their costs? Analyzing thousands of guilds from 1000 to 1880, The European Guilds answers that question with vivid examples and clear economic reasoning. Sheilagh Ogilvie features the voices of honourable guild masters, underpaid journeymen, exploited apprentices, shady officials, and outraged customers, and follows the stories of the "vile encroachers"-women, migrants, Jews, gypsies, bastards, and others-desperate to work but hunted down by the guilds as illicit competitors. The European Guilds analyzes the toxic complicity between guild members and political elites, and shows how privileged institutions and exclusive networks prey on prosperity and stifle growth.

Introductory Chapter: The Dynamic of Cultural Interactions in the Workplace in Africa: The Cultural Paradox
Suzanne M. Apitsa
Abstract: The dynamics of ethnic cultural interactions within companies in Africa is an insufficiently explored phenomenon in the academic literature. Understanding the internal logic of individuals in organizations in Africa makes it possible to take advantage of ethnic cultural paradoxes for managerial action. In a resolutely cross-cultural approach, the results of qualitative empirical study, conducted in three French multinationals based in Cameroon and Nigeria, suggest that ethnicity - an element of identity and structuring African societies - must be seen in the same way as culture as having positive effects, but also as a source of difficulty in managerial action. In addition, the results provide a timely framework for diversity management policy and tools for organizations in Africa.
Chapter 1: The Paradoxes of Coopetitive Integration in Madagascar: An Approach Based on the Actor-Network Theory
Gilde Ralandison, Йric Milliot and Victor Harison
Abstract: For three years, the authors have observed two clusters of small and medium sized enterprises involved in the essential oil industry in Madagascar. This longitudinal observation of complementary clusters (one has a formal structure, while the other does not) helps identify a specific type of merger between competitors-partners: integrated coopetition. Using the Actor-Network Theory to understand the way in which such different actors can come to a stable consensus, the authors propose a model of paradox management inside and between the organizations which characterize this type of link-up.
Chapter 2: The Factors Influencing the SME's Engagement in Export: The case of Algeria
Mohamed Kadi
Abstract: This chapter aims to analyze the main factors influencing the export engagement of Algerian SMEs by relying on data from a survey of 43 exporting companies. To achieve this, we favored an exploratory study based on a principal component analysis (PCA). We observed, through the results, that the level of commitment in export presents itself as a strategic choice which is built independently of the level of competition / saturation in the Algerian market. It also seems that access to foreign markets does not depend entirely on the innovation capacity of the SME but on its relational capacities and the level of development of its network.

Chapter 3: Internationalization of Moroccan SMEs in sub-Saharan African Region: An analysis based on the Uppsala Model
Oumaima Chamchati, Mohamed Nabil El Mabrouki and Caroline Minialai
Abstract: The objective of this chapter is to examine the pertinence of the Uppsala model in analyzing the internationalization of Moroccan SMEs in Sub-Saharan Africa. To achieve this, we first describe how Johanson and Vahlne explain the choice of host country and entry mode in their model. Then, based on a series of interviews with Moroccan SMEs operating in Sub-Saharan Africa and representatives of overseas support organizations, we analyze the similarities and differences between the proposals of the Uppsala model and our results. It shows that Uppsala's model must broaden its definition of distance and reconsider the importance of political distance. In the intra-African context, diplomatic relations between countries generate a "driving effect" among companies. The importance of this effect shou
