Фэшн-фильм. Искусство и реклама в цифровую эпоху
5
Появление жанра фэшн-фильма – результат почти столетнего тесного сотрудничества между кинематографом и индустрией моды. В это понятие, границы которого достаточно подвижны, принято включать как рекламные ролики дизайнерских брендов, так и полнометражные художественные картины. Книга Ника Рис-Робертса посвящена исследованию связи фэшн-фильма с медиа, рекламой и цифровыми технологиями, с одной стороны, а с другой – с искусством и его основными этапами развития при особом акценте на эпоху постмодернизма. Что представляет собой фэшн-фильм и каковы его характерные черты? Какие каналы коммуникации задействованы в его распространении сегодня, в цифровую эпоху? В какой мере фэшн-фильм оказывается средством, используемым крупными брендами для рекламы, и наоборот, может ли он выражать иной взгляд на культуру, отвергающий потребление как ее движущую силу? В поисках ответа на эти вопросы автор прибегает не только к теоретическому анализу, но и обращается к истории индустрии, раскрывая характеры ее знаменитых героев, …

Fast Second. How Smart Companies Bypass Radical Innovation to Enter and Dominate New Markets
5
Discover why being a «fast second» is often more financially rewarding than being at the cutting edge. If you get there first, you'll lead the pack, right? Not necessarily! The skill-sets of most established companies, say strategy experts Constantinos Markides and Paul Geroski, are far better suited to scaling up newly created markets pioneered by others (in other words, being «fast seconds») than to creating these markets from scratch. In Fast Second, they explore the characteristics of new markets, describe the skills needed to create and compete in them, and show how these skills match up with different types of companies. Drawing on examples of successful fast-second firms such as Microsoft, Amazon, Canon, JVC, Heinz, and many others, they illustrate how to determine which new markets have the potential to be successful and how to move into them before the competition does, when to make a move into a new market, how to scale up a market, where to position a company in the market, and whether to be a …

International Finance Regulation. The Quest for Financial Stability
5
As the global market expands, the need for international regulation becomes urgent Since World War II, financial crises have been the result of macroeconomic instability until the fatidic week end of September 15 2008, when Lehman Brothers filed for bankruptcy. The financial system had become the source of its own instability through a combination of greed, lousy underwriting, fake ratings and regulatory negligence. From that date, governments tried to put together a new regulatory framework that would avoid using taxpayer money for bailout of banks. In an uncoordinated effort, they produced a series of vertical regulations that are disconnected from one another. That will not be sufficient to stop finance from being instable and the need for international and horizontal regulation is urgent. This challenge is the focus of Georges Ugeux’s book. International Finance Regulation: The Quest for Financial Stability focuses on the inspirations behind regulation, and examines the risks and consequences of fragm…

Gordon Ramsay’s Playing with Fire
5
Not a sausage. That is what Gordon Ramsay had when he started out as a chef, working 16-hour days, 6 days a week. When he was struggling to get his first restaurant in the black, he didn't think he'd be famous for a TV show about how to run profitable eateries, or that he'd be head of a business empire. But he is and he did. Here's how."In the beginning there was nothing.Not a sausage – penniless, broke, fucking nothing – and although, at a certain age, that didn’t matter hugely, there came a time when hand-me-downs, cast-offs and football boots of odd sizes all pointed to a problem that seemed to have afflicted me, my mum, my sisters, Ronnie and the whole lot of us. It was as though we had been dealt the ‘all-time dysfunctional’ poker hand.I wish I could say that, from this point on, the penny dropped and I decided to do something about it, but it wasn’t like that. It would take years before the lessons of life, business and money began to click into place – before, as they say, I had a pot to piss in.Th…
