Abstract:
O conceito omnicanal tem progredido e ganho importância junto dos retalhistas, conseguindo que estes reconheçam as suas vantagens, sobretudo quando utilizado em negócios que pretendam uniformizar a sua segmentação de mercado. No retalho mundial e europeu constata-se a forte tendência de adoção da estratégia omnicanal, graças à comprovação do seu impacto positivo nas vendas. Duas grandes marcas de retalho, a Amazon e a Walmart, são exemplares quanto ao tornarem-se omnipresentes no mercado: ambas disponibilizam canais online e offline, seja em plataforma de e-commerce, seja em loja físicas ou o

The changes from generation and technology have caused many physical retailers to run into difficulties. At this time, Amazon is doing the opposite. In November 2015, it opened the first physical bookstore Amazon Books in Seattle. Also in June 2017, it announced a $13.7 billion acquisition of 460 stores supermarket Whole Foods in the United States. At the same time, Walmart, the physi

Abstract:
The purpose of this paper is to propose a merger between Walmart and Wholefoods, respectively the biggest general and natural food retailer in the world. The rationale behind it relates to the improvements that both companies could provide to the other, complementing themselves on a financial, operational and strategic basis. Walmart would increase its product range and attract Millennials, while Wholefoods would improve its operations thanks to a much bigger bargaining power and a lower tax rate among other factors. After an extensive evaluation process, it is concluded that the combine

Walmart is world’s biggest retailer and private employer that in the course of its 50 year life has been pushing the pace of innovation in American retail industry. At the base of Walmart’s success there are ideas of restless growth and constant experiments that Sam Walton, company’s founder, has always stood by. In America, Walmart won almost everything that was there to win: the 200 mil-lion customers that visit Walmart each week is a viable proof of that. Still Walmart, always hungry for gro

abstract: The objective of this dissertation is to empirically analyze the results of the retail location decision making process and how chain networks evolve given their value platform. It employs one of the largest cross-sectional databases of retailers ever assembled, including 50 US retail chains and over 70,000 store locations. Three closely related articles, which develop new theory explaining location deployment and behaviors of retailers, are presented. The first article, "Regionalism in US Retailing," presents a comprehensive spatial analysis of the domestic patterns of retailers. Ge

Abstract:
This dissertation explores issues on women’s employment and children’s health in economics. In chapter I, I investigate the causal effects of maternal employment on childhood obesity. Empirical analysis of the effects of maternal employment on childhood obesity is complicated by the endogeneity of mother’s labor supply. A mother’s decision to work likely reflects underlying factors – such as ability and motivation – that could directly influence child health outcomes. To address this concern, this study implements an instrumental variables (IV) strategy which utilizes exogenous variation in ma

Abstract:
This dissertation identifies and investigates the characteristics of the early 21st-century social, economic, and political situation as intrinsically connected and grouped under the concept of corporatism. Starting from Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari’s schizoanalysis of capitalism, this thesis argues that corporatism or corporate capitalism is immanent: an interconnected, networked, rhizomatic system that has been successful at overtaking biopower – life in all its forms, human and otherwise – and managing it, or even making it its business.
