«World Class: Thriving Locally in the Global Economy» is the economics essay by Rosabeth Moss Kanter, published by Simon & Schuster Ltd in hardback.
Against the fear of foreign competition, Kanter argues that businesses and communities can turn globalization into opportunity. She analyzes cases in the United States: Boston as an innovation hub, Spartanburg-Greenville as an international manufacturing center, and Miami as a commercial enclave, with keys to competing in the world economy.
The book has 416 pages and is in English. Originally published in 1995, it includes bibliographic references and an index.
Aimed at professionals, policymakers, and academic readers interested in economics, management, and globalization.
