Navigating Business Adaptation Amid Geopolitical Tensions

The contemporary global business environment is increasingly shaped by geopolitical uncertainty, as trade disputes, economic sanctions, regional conflicts, and the weakening of multilateral institutions influence how firms make strategic decisions. Developments such as trade conflicts, war, and escalating tensions have demonstrated that geopolitical risk is no longer a peripheral concern. Instead, it has become a critical factor affecting firm performance, investment decisions, supply chain configurations, and value creation in both developed and developing economies. Despite its growing significance, research on geopolitical risk remains fragmented across disciplines, limiting the development of a comprehensive understanding of its implications for organizations. Navigating Business Adaptation Amid Geopolitical Tensions synthesizes diverse scholarship on geopolitical risk to provide a unified framework for understanding its impact on business strategy and organizational resilience. This book examines how firms operating across different geographic, political, and institutional environments develop strategic responses to geopolitical uncertainty and disruption. Covering topics such as agri-food supply chains, managerial accounting, and workforce resilience, this book is a valuable resource for graduate students, doctoral researchers, corporate strategists, business resilience professionals, international affairs scholars, geopolitical risk analysts, strategic advisors, policymakers, and others seeking to understand the evolving relationship between geopolitics and international business.
