It provides multidisciplinary perspectives from economists, sociologists, and political scientists to demonstrate how the Greenlandic economy works.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDue to an increasing focus on the Arctic area and Greenland in particular, the book seeks to understand the functioning and dynamics of Greenlands labor economy, as well as the challenges that arise from the melting ice and internationalization. It fills a substantive gap in the existing literature by compiling research on these critical subjects and exploring current and future opportunities for laborers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eToday, Greenland is reliant on large financial subsidies from Denmark to provide for a large share of its national budget. This fuels Greenlands political ambition to gain greater independence from Denmark, which requires more private sector growth to develop a sustainable economy. This book thus contains an exhaustive introduction to important business development themes such as macroeconomics, markets, labor supply, labor market policies, and institutions and considers Greenlands colonial past, great Inuit heritage, and unique geography and nature to re-shape its economy and labor markets.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eInformed by a lucid writing style, each chapter casts light on different economic and social issues of Greenland.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is the first international book on Greenlands economy, which discusses its geopolitical importance and prospects for the Arctic region. It will be a valuable point of reference for students and academics of economics, Arctic research, and political economy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 453g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 234 x 156 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780367516277\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44275742966010,"sku":"9780367516277","price":42.83,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1686306609016_book.jpg?v=1686476036","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/greenlands-economy-and-labour-markets-9780367516277","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
