This course aims to provide a general understanding of international trade and, more specifically, knowledge of techniques used in
export practice. It is composed of two parts. The first one, sessions 1 to 13 below, deals with customs procedures, the overall
international carriage of goods and also the techniques and tools of international payment. The second part, entitled ‘Export
Diagnosis’ is a project, conducted by the students and based on a real case. It makes the students more familiar with the conditions
that SMEs have to meet in order to implement a successful export strategy. Working in small groups, students assess the feasibility
and chance of success of several export projects submitted by existing SMEs. They build a business plan and develop
recommendations based upon their own analysis of data collected from foreign markets, academic and professional sources. The
presentation of their Action Plan is included below as session 14.

In a globalised economy each actor is increasingly likely to work with colleagues and partners from the most different cultural
environments. Cross-cultural awareness and communication skills are therefore essential assets. The course aims at introducing
students to the main issues of intercultural dynamics within groups of various cultural origins. It introduces concepts from
communication sciences and draws on a range of theories from the social sciences that help make sense of the specific challenges of
intercultural encounters. The course also draws on students' personal experience within the ongoing semester and provides them
with tools for reflected continuous personal development.

In the past few years, a new generation of technologies has come along to disrupt the way marketers, advertisers, consumers,
citizens and law makers operate. The objective of this course is to present the digital revolution and get students to grasp the
sociological, legal and marketing implications of this revolution. In order to do so, students must apprehend the digital landscape
from a consumer rights point of view, master some of the key digital tools for marketers (and consumers) and participate actively in
the digital society. The format of the course is a mix of lectures, digital media workshop and self-learning experience via
conferences, webinars and trade show attendance.

We live in a globalizing world, in which barriers to movement of goods, services and people are diminishing. Within Europe,
developments move even faster. This worldwide process of economic and political integration needs regulations and standards of
International Law and particularly European Law which has become increasingly important.
This course will focus on national and international business functions against the background of regulations created by national,
European and international lawmakers. A general knowledge of such legal tendencies will aid the students of this course in their
future careers as managers and international business leaders.
No special knowledge or experience with law is required to participate in this course.

The course will adress contemporary economic ans social issues through the lens of major thinkers in the intellectual tradition of
political economy such as Adam Smith (Conlin), J.S. Mill (Anquetil) John Maynard Keynes (Chavance) and Joseph Schumpeter
(Slim). Its aim is to understand the problems that arise from the growth of international markets and globalization in connection
with post-industrial societies. Through going back to the roots of economic thought, it will be shown that old concepts give a fresh
look to current globalization analyses.

ENV351 - SOCIAL MARKET ECONOMY

Department : Environnement de l'entreprise

Campus : Angers
Social market economy or "soziale Marktwirtschaft" is a term with distinctive German roots that refers to an economy that allows for
institutions that facilitate the inclusion of the less wealthy, in the framework of a market economy though. The term "social" was
chosen rather than "socialist" to stress the State intervention in the economy rather than the full control of it. In this regard, a social
market economy is built upon the "principle of subsidiarity," which means that decisions should be taken at the lowest possible level
with individuals taking care of themselves constrained by the "principle of solidarity," which allows for State intervention whenever
the market fails. Thus, the social market economy provides a general framework for initiatives that fuel a sustainable market
economy or a kind of "welfare society." This course will address some of the most important aspects of the social market economy
exploring its links with the social responsibility of business.

The course will address contemporary economic and social issues through the lens of major thinkers in the intellectual tradition of
political economy such as Karl Marx (Rees), Friedrich Hayek (Agafonow), and John Rawls (Heitz). Its aim is to understand the
problems that arise from the growth of international markets and globalization in connection with post-industrial societies. Through
going back to the roots of economic thought, it will be shown that economic theory was once an equivalent to social theory, with
room for ethical concerns that make possible to deal with what the economy ought to be like or what goals of economic policy ought
to be. In this regard, this course will address the normative implications of economic issues relevant for contemporary European
post-industrial societies.

The course focuses on different parts of European economics. It also features a module on Lobbying in the EU. Through those
aspects of European economics the students will gain an understanding of the workings of the Common Internal Market, its impact
on the Member States and its positioning in our globalized world. Importantly, it will show the link between economics and politics,
i.e. beyond the normal expertise of a business student in managment, marketing or finances, it is also imortant to understand the
political environment in which all of this takes place in order to be able to utilise business opportunities fully.

This course will provide students with an historical understanding of European Integration and it will give insights into the political
development of key member-states of the European Union.
The course deals with the two existing and interlinked realities of national and non-national government and politics in important
European states such as France, Germany and Britain. We will cover the political history of these states, their institutional
arrangements and some important social dynamics within the states. The course will compare and contrast the relationship between
the EU and the different nation-states and, in historical terms, the development of a national position on the European Community.

The objective of the course is twofold. First, it aims at giving students a broad overview of the world wine market and of its
economic, social and regulatory patterns. Based on a description of the functions performed by the various members of the wine
supply-chain – illuminating what makes it specific compared to FMCGs – it then explains the need for an adapted marketing mix.
Case-studies and real-life examples serve as guidelines to explore wine consumer’s behavior and to study the relevance of the
marketing strategies and techniques wine producers and retailers use to brand, advertise and sell wine.
