CONSECUENCIAS DEL FIN DE LA HEGEMONíA ESTADOUNIDENSE EN LA GERENCIA LATINOAMERICANA

After the end of the Second World War, the UnitedStates emerged as a world power. Although thisnation is still a protagonist in the world economy,recent worldwide events seem to have weakenedits hegemonic position. The dollar is losing groundagainst the euro, partly as result of the world economicrecession. Meanwhile, other Asian currenciesare gaining strength. In these conditions Indiaand China are emerging as new economic worldpowers. The world is moving towards a multi-polarsituation without multilateralism. These structural changeshave important implications in the work of the Latin-American managers in at least the following areas: reintegrationof local economies in the international economy,reformulation of economic relations with the United Statesand large international enterprises, integration of moderntechnology and formulation of human resource managementpolicies.
