Although networks in prior research have been highlighted as a remedy to resource constraints experienced by smaller firms, little attention has been paid to understanding mechanisms through which smaller firms benefit from networks for effective innovation performance. In this paper we develop...

The problem of unfriendly absorptions is lighted yet not enough up in domestic literature the Ukrainian economists. So, for example, Patrick I. Gokhan, M. Ioncev in the labours more frequent the examples of separate receptions of unfriendly absorptions and preparatory steps lead before...

The integration of India with the global financial system has expose Indian economy¡¦s external sectors to a harsh reality of capital flows. Among the capital flows, many are a global unaccounted risk and uncertainties. Systematic study to understand real and nominal impact of the flows in the...
