Business, Economy and Society: Issues for Research in a Knowledge and Information Society

Abstract

This book is the result of a project financed by Banco Santander in which European Universities (Glasgow Caledonian University in Scotland and Universidad de Alicante in Spain) have worked together in order to offer Doctorate students and their supervisors the opportunity to learn from one another. Presentations, practical exercises, cultural visits and talks about methods, results and motivation of academic investigation took place between 8th and 12th of June 2015 in Alicante and between 11th and 15th January 2016 in Glasgow in order that: Examples of best practice in research were shared, problems that commonly appear during the study of a doctorate were resolved and a process was introduced to facilitate the exchange of experiences and the mutual collaboration between researchers in both Universities. This compilation of articles shows the research abilities of the participants and forms an example of the dissemination of knowledge.
