  • This Companion is the first academic introduction to the 1960s/70s 'Krautrock' movement of German experimental music that has long attracted the attention of the music press and fans in Britain and abroad. It offers a structured approach to this exceptionally heterogeneous and decentralized movement, combining overviews with detailed analysis and close readings. The volume first analyzes the cultural, historical and economic contexts of Krautrock's emergence. It then features expert chapters discussing all the key bands of the era including Can, Kraftwerk, Tangerine Dream, Neu!, Faust, Ash Ra Tempel, Cluster and Amon Düül II. The volume concludes with essays that trace the varied, wide-ranging legacy of Krautrock from a variety of perspectives, exploring in particular the impact of German experimental music in the Anglosphere, including British post-punk and Detroit Techno. A final chapter examining the current bands that continue the Krautrock sound closes this comprehensive overview of the Krautrock phenomenon.

  • Summary

    This chapter discusses several emerging globalisation models: the Springboard Model; its variant, the Leapfrog Model; the Mixed Model, a hybrid globalisation approach that leverages the combined benefits of administrative and market systems; and the Effectual Model, an appropriate for entrepreneurial firms. The discussion delineates the advantages and challenges of each model as well as the motivations for firms to adopt these models. Similar to , this chapter also traces the development of various exemplary firms (and their respective industries) that have successfully adopted these models. They include: China Merchants Bank (Springboard Model), Huawei (Leapfrog Model), CRRC (high-speed rail) (Mixed Model), and Techno (Effectual Model).
