Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very Good. 1st Edition. SIGNED James Flanigan Smile Southern California, You're the Center of the Universe : The Economy and People of a Global Region by James Flanigan HCDJ Thirty-five years ago, a billboard announced to the world: "Smile Los Angeles! You're the Center of the Universe." Hyperbolic at the time, today, this exaggeration comes close to reality. While Southern California is not at the literal center of the universe, it is nevertheless an eye-popping illustration of our globalizing world. Over the course of forty years of reporting, author James Flanigan has written about Southern California for such publications as Forbes and the New York Times . In this book, Flanigan provocatively distills his experiences with and knowledge of the region,arguing that Southern California is an economic model for the United States and the world. With clarity and precision, Flanigan examines numerous pillars of the region's growth, including dynamic entrepreneurship; the rapid growth of international trade,; the harnessing and development of new technologies; and the evolution of the entertainment industry. He assesses the achievements of the region's people, businesses, and institutions. The text highlights the influx of immigrants to Southern California, and discusses these people's role in building local businesses and bringing capital to the region. Flanigan concludes the book by looking past the boundaries of today and into to the economic opportunities and challenges of tomorrow--for Southern California and America. Throughout the book, Flanigan weaves in numerous interviews that bring to life the economic forces that he describes. Most valuable are the stories that he shares of businesspeople--well and less known--who demonstrate where our economy stands and where it is heading. Smile Southern California! delivers more than a "pat on the back" for the inhabitants of Los Angeles and its environs; it offers an insider's view on Southern California, valuable insights for readers with an eye on the economy, and an exciting story full of real people and triumphs to boot!

Paperback. Condizione: New. Chairman Yang Ho Cho, head of Korean Air and Hanjin, talks of Los Angeles as a "microcosm of the United States-a land built of immigrants who want to do one thing: improve their lives." In The Korean-American Dream, distinguished business journalist James Flanigan uncovers the struggles and contributions of the people who have made Los Angeles the largest Korean city outside of Seoul. This intimate account illustrates how Korean immigrants have preserved their culture and history while adapting to the American culture of e pluribus unum, the radical promise of "out of many, one." Flanigan shows how Los Angeles emerged as a capital of the Asia-Pacific region.At less than two million, Korean Americans are a relatively small group compared to new Americans from China, the Philippines, and India. But with energy and drive, they are building landmarks in New York as well as Los Angeles, lobbying for causes in Washington, founding businesses, heading universities and hospitals, and holding public office in all parts of the United States. Flanigan's compelling narrative, told largely through personal interviews, provides a front-row seat to the economic, business, and cultural developments of the Korean American community. At a time of spirited debate about immigration, their energy and ambition serve as a ringing reminder of the promise of the American mosaic.…
