Gray zones

the long version

"The author, one of Germany's leading economic historians, analyzes the special features of the German path to the New Economy as it faces the American challenge. He paints a picture of Germany Inc. and looks at the durability of some of its structures and the mentalities that undergird it. He sees a "culture clash" and argues against an underestimation of the dynamics of the German industrial system. A book for all interested in comparative economics and those who have been inclined to dismiss the German Model as outmoded and weak."--BOOK JACKET.
