The e-commerce and e-business revolutions have led many organisations to question their ways of managing the multitude of challenges that arise from embracing the e-world. This subject acknowledges the risks and opportunities inherent in both adopting and ignoring the technological advantages now available to organisations. This subject assumes that most of these challenges help define the international organisation of the future. The critical dimensions require a planned approach if the risks assumed by many dot.com companies at the start of the 21st century are to become a matter of history. The subject is designed to introduce a new and developing way envisaging business-to-business, business-to-customer, and government-to-business relations. The supply chain management enhancements, growing trade blocs and diminishing national boundaries (to mention just a few) challenge the borders of traditional international organisations in ways that are just beginning to be explored.
