This article analyzes the competitive advantage of German renewable energy firms in Russia. Based on Porter's diamond model of competitiveness, we examine the demand for renewable energy in Russia and German firms' ability to meet this demand. While the overall demand for renewable energy in Russia is still low, the study reveals formidable opportunities in the fields of biomass, solar and wind energy. Our findings are meant to address managers in the renewable energy industry and to aid policy makers in environmental support and action.

German health care policy is characterized by a paradigm shift initiated by the enactment of the Health Care Structure Act in 1992. This fundamental change is both affecting in its care structures and its financial and regulatory mechanisms. This transformation is an expression of a paradigm change in health policy initiated during the first half of the 1990s. This paradigm change in health policy increasingly favours the goal of adapting the health care system to the perceived requirements of a globalised economy at the expense of the aim of covering the social life-risk of 'sickness'. Since it began, health policy has proceeded down that chosen development path, generally by means of incremental reforms. In terms of care structures the paradigm change involves modernization and ration...

There are a growing number of studies describing developments in the labour market, in employer-employee relationships, and in individual careers in a very similar way. The discussion about work force flexibility and the challenges for HRM to handle scattered arrangements is often justified by a growing complexity caused by the driving forces of globalization, virtualization, demographic developments or changes in values. However, so far there is no empirical evidence for that complexity hypothesis in individual careers. The primary aim of this article is to approach the complexity hypothesis of career research on the basis of a sound definition for complexity and to test the complexity hypothesis for data from the Vienna Career Panel Project.

Germany's health insurance system represents the archetype of the healthcare arrangement generally known as the "Bismarck model". Core elements of this model are the management of healthcare by self-governing corporatist bodies and the funding primarily by income-related contributions, not by taxes. The German health care system has been in a dynamic transformation process since the early 1990s. We currently have a situation where elements of different systems exist side by side. In this contribution we argue that this transformation has already robbed the core elements of the Bismarck system of a great deal of their importance, and that it must be expected that their significance will continue to decline as the reform process progresses.

Environmental, social and governance factors are becoming increasingly significant for comprehensive firm valuation. These factors are, however, of a qualitative nature and therefore difficult to express in numerical figures. Consequently, disclosure and the relevancy thereof to investors are problematic. This article analyzes a breakthrough instrument which facilitates the quantification and representation of such data against the background of international institutional efforts aiming to promote standardized qualitative reporting for extra-financial information.

The relationship of internationalization with firm performance continues to be a major focus of corporate strategy. While internationalization raises important issues of risk and uncertainty, cross-cultural aspects of employee conduct and consumer behavior, market structure and competition, and political and regulatory dimensions, it also provides new opportunities for growth, profitability and organizational learning. This study seeks to contribute to the topic by empirically investigating the influence of the country of origin effect on the internationalization and performance relationship. The findings of this study offer strong support for the underlying notion that a MNC's home country impacts the internationalization-performance relationship. In particular, a positive linear relat...
