  • Party politics, national security, and émigré political violence in Australia, 1949-1973 by Mate Nikola Tokić

    Party politics, national security, and émigré political violence in Australia, 1949-1973

    Mate Nikola Tokić

    From the early 1950 s, Australia's ruling party and internal security agency viewed acts of political violence among émigré separatist Croatian extremists ambivalently, if not at times favorably. Whereas the state certainly never encouraged or supported acts of terror on the part of Croat émigrés, neither did it actively pursue a policy of control over the purveyors of that violence. In Australia, as elsewhere, governmental policy toward Croatian émigré terrorism was driven more by external political considerations than by any desire to control the violence itself. The failure-or indeed refusal-of the Liberal Party and ASIO to exert control over separatist violence can be traced to the very ideological underpinnings of the two bodies, not least their staunch anti-communism. The unprecedented measures to control Croatian terrorism adopted by the Australian Labor Party after 1972, meanwhile, find their roots in part in the political opportunism of a party that had just come to power after enduring a full generation in opposition. The struggle for control over Croatian separatist violence became a struggle for control over much more in Australia: control over the institutions of the state, control over the underlying principles of government and, at its most basic level, control over power. The history of Australia's relationship to émigré political violence brings into sharp relief the complex relationship between ideology, party politics, institutional dogma, and the control of violence. © 2011 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC.

  • Ariel Egypt: From market penetration to fierce competition by Ahmed Tolba

    Ariel Egypt: From market penetration to fierce competition

    Ahmed Tolba

    This case study examines the past and present challenges facing Ariel, a long-time market leader in the detergent sector in Egypt whose market share has started to slip. In particular, it examines the marketing strategies and performance of Ariel High Suds, which is witnessing a declining market share as well as a decline in the overall high-suds market due to fierce competition and the growing low-suds market in Egypt. © 2011, IGI Global.

  • The alexandria mineral oils company (AMOC): A strategic assessment of AMOC's IPO by Eskandar Tooma

    The alexandria mineral oils company (AMOC): A strategic assessment of AMOC's IPO

    Eskandar Tooma

    This case deals with a critical question about the underlying motives for Initial Public Offerings (IPOs), using the events surrounding the IPO of the Alexandria Mineral and Oils Company (AMOC) in Egypt. AMOC, a government-owned company that was seeking partial privatization, was offered to the public at LE 45per share, and in no more than one week of trading, the share price skyrocketed to LE 85, almost doubling the company's price/earnings (P/E) ratio. This was a matter of major concern to the company's management, since the high P/E ratio detracted from AMOC's attractiveness to a strategic investor. The case gives an overview of AMOC's main business activities and of the local and international petroleum industry and highlights the process of an initial public offering as well as the parties involved. © 2011, IGI Global.

  • ERP post-implementation adoption success dynamics: A cultural perspective by M. S. Akabawi

    ERP post-implementation adoption success dynamics: A cultural perspective

    M. S. Akabawi

    The purpose of this research is to explore the barriers of adoption and adaptation of Enterprise Resources Planning (ERP) systems at the post implementation phase within Developing Countries (DCs) business culture. Human agency-related issues and IT materiality factors specific to the DCs business environment were researched within the framework of post-implementation use of cross-functional information systems in a longitudinal case study. Focus group teams, composed of business units' end-users, managers and IT specialists (employment cohorts) were mobilized to elicit the causes of failing ERP services. The scope of this research fits within the studies that target the analysis of organizational adoption and use of ERP. Feedback loops analysis method was used for the study and presentation of the complex dynamic socio-technical behavior in enterprises to gain insight of the relationships among the many non-linear variables prevalent in the post implementation stage of the ERP lifecycle. Those variables were arrived at through canvassing stakeholder groups in the case firm, using focus group approach and the Causal Loop Diagramming as the analysis tool. The introduced methodology in this research is meant to highlight a new perspective to the understanding of the success model of ERP use and adoption. © 2011, IGI Global.
