Produktbeschreibung
This book focuses on UK Government policy-making as it pertains to the UK farming and food industry. This sector faces many serious economic problems. In response, the UK Government has developed policies and strategies to create profitable, sustainable and internationally-competitive farming and food chains. One policy has been to promote partnerships . Considerable time and money has been spent on implementing this policy. However, the many initiatives launched have only been partially successful. A key reason for this is that many of those trying to implement partnering have not recognised that, whilst there are many tangible and intangible advantages to be derived from partnerships , they are not always appropriate or possible. A key factor in determining when a partnership is either appropriate or possible and whether an attempted partnership was successful is buyer-supplier power. Unfortunately, the concept of power never featured in UK Government policy documents. The bookalso aims to improve our understanding of the dynamics of buyer-supplier power relationships.
