It is a mechanism to manage the affairs of human beings as they provided for their mutual, but not always equal, attainment of satisfaction. It is therefore a universal instrument that emerged out of the ordered exchange process and is to be found in all cultures. Its growth and maturity were fueled by common denominators of value that are shared across and between social groups around the world and act as a trade agent, bridging and bonding alien territories. As such it began in ancient times and continues into the present, where its prevalence has resulted in a more borderless world with increasing interdependence of nations. The historic commercial activities used in the past form the platform of principles still evident in its modern- day structure. 000950809 588__ $$aTitle from PDF title page (viewed on November 25, 2015). 000950809 650_0 $$aGlobalization. 000950809 650_0 $$aInternational business enterprises. 000950809 653__ $$aancient commodities 000950809 653__ $$abusiness principles 000950809 653__ $$acompetition 000950809 653__ $$acost 000950809 653__ $$aeconomics 000950809 653__ $$aglobalization 000950809 653__ $$agovernment 000950809 653__ $$ainternational business 000950809 653__ $$amarket 000950809 653__ $$amediums of exchange 000950809 653__ $$aproprietary rights 000950809 653__ $$areligion 000950809 653__ $$asecular laws 000950809 653__ $$atechnology 000950809 653__ $$aworld trade 000950809 655_0 $$aElectronic books 000950809 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9781631572302 000950809 830_0 $$aInternational business collection.$$x1948-2760 000950809 852__ $$bebk 000950809 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete $$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=4009425$$zOnline Access 000950809 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:950809$$pGLOBAL_SET 000950809 980__ $$aBIB 000950809 980__ $$aEBOOK 000950809 982__ $$aEbook 000950809 983__ $$aOnline
