Understanding the Iranian business environment requires a holistic approach as in Iran society, culture, religion, economy, politics, and family are intimately intertwined. For this reason, the book adopts a broad scope and relies on a wide range of academic and professional resources to bring insights into the Iranian context. It tries to bridge theory and practice by offering a reasonable blend of academic perspective and practical expertise. It aims at offering an analytical, readable, quite comprehensive, and supposedly impartial account. This book consists of 14 chapters organized in two parts. Part 1 touches upon the broader social and historical conditions and moves progressively from the physical geography and current issues to sociopolitical system and geopolitical environment. Part 2 is devoted to more practical topics including Iran's national culture, negotiation and communication styles, economic system, energy market, nonoil sectors, business environment, and consumer behavior. While the chapters are interrelated, they stand fairly distinct from each other and offer the convenience of being consulted separately. This book is a valuable reference for business managers, investors, analysts, policy makers, scholars, students, expatriates, travelers, and all those who are concerned with the Iranian affairs. 000841725 588__ $$aTitle from PDF title page (viewed on August 21, 2015). 000841725 650_0 $$aBusiness enterprises$$zIran. 000841725 651_0 $$aIran$$xCommerce. 000841725 651_0 $$aIran$$xCivilization$$y21st century. 000841725 653__ $$aCentral Asia 000841725 653__ $$aemerging markets 000841725 653__ $$ainternational business 000841725 653__ $$ainternational management 000841725 653__ $$aIran 000841725 653__ $$aIranian culture 000841725 653__ $$aIranian economy 000841725 653__ $$aMiddle East 000841725 653__ $$aPersian Gulf 000841725 655_0 $$aElectronic books 000841725 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9781606495988 000841725 830_0 $$aInternational business collection.$$x1948-2760 000841725 852__ $$bebk 000841725 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete $$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=2145194$$zOnline Access 000841725 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:841725$$pGLOBAL_SET 000841725 980__ $$aBIB 000841725 980__ $$aEBOOK 000841725 982__ $$aEbook 000841725 983__ $$aOnline
