Chapter 3 covers mise-en-scène, specifically examining Sets and Settings, Blocking and Direct Address, Special Effects, and Animation: all that the frame contains within its physical and visible parameters to create signifying, ideologically imbued images. As the commercial’s mise-en-scène invokes the familiar, the shock of the unfamiliar, or even the convergence of the two, it establishes a sense of product differentiation in a highly competitive market for the television audience.

This book review article of the recently published Theory In Marketing interprets the general significance of the essays in terms of the adaptation of management to broad societal, nonmarket environmental forces. It is suggested that it would be preferable to focus environmental forces through a conceptualization of the competitive market system.

The role of trade policy as a tool of economic development has attained considerable significance in India, specially in the post-reform period. This has happened because the economy has witnessed a tremendous upsurge in the wake of globalisation and driven by a fiercely competitive market system. In this background, the paper examines the amendments incorporated in the basic framework of the five-year trade policy (2002-07) commencing on 31 March 2003. It also takes into account the trade related changes introduced through the Central Budget 2003. The paper has been organized around five major themes of the new trade policy, viz. identifying thrust areas for exports, strengthening vehicles of exports, rationalising incentives, reducing transaction cost, and involving states in export promotion. It attempts to examine the changes under each of them at length. It accesses the impact of these changes on country's export performance during 2003-04 in particular and, towards meeting the objective of one per cent share in world export by March 2007 in general. It also briefly indicates the areas such as labour laws in which the policy failed to take concrete initiatives.

Environmental impact and recycling have been increasingly frequent topics in recent years. At the same time, the life cycle of products has increasingly become shorter, as the escalating competitive market requires new products in smaller pieces. From this perspective, the recovery of parts and products that are produced in this market system for subsequent reuse when they reach the end of their life cycle is essential. For these reasons, it has become critical that companies re-evaluate their product design with a view to the possible recovery of the parts that comprise their products and to create new products for the market. The following discussion was based on the study of design for disassembly (DfD), which is the analysis of industrial products aimed at optimizing disassembly in terms of time and costs. The application of the DfD to a case study of a gearbox has, among its main objectives, the search for the best disassembly sequence in terms of time and money. During the course of the study, augmented reality (AR) was used. Through the use of the Unity software and Vuforia package, it was possible to bring the gearbox back to AR and then simulate the disassembly sequence in AR.

The article discusses the issue of shortage of skills in the Russian industry. Using microdata from a survey of industrial enterprises, the author confirms that most of employers complain of difficulties in hiring and attaching skilled workers. In case of mass occupations, this shortage relates mostly to low efficient enterprises, which are unable or unwilling to pay competitive market going wage. More efficient and better paying firms are less likely to face shortage of general skills on the labor market but may face limited supply of specific skills.

The article analyzes the psychological basis of the theory and economic policy of libertarianism, as contained in the book by A. Greenspan "The Age of Turbulence", clarifies the strengths and weaknesses of this doctrine that led to its discredit in 2008. It presents a new understanding of liberalization in 1980-1990s as a process of institutional transformation at the micro and meso levels, implemented by politicians and entrepreneurs with predatory and opportunistic mentality. That process caused, on the one hand, the acceleration of growth, on the other hand - the erosion of informal foundations of a market system. With psychology and ideology of libertarianism, it is impossible to perceive real macro risks generated at the micro level, which lead to a systemic crisis, and to develop measures to prevent it.
