Abstract
Most of us are probably not aware how far-reaching are the implications of the European Community (EC). The aim of Chapter 7 is to describe the relevance of the EC and ‘1992’ to managers in any kind of organization. Planning to implement a Single European Market by 1992 provided a useful target for making progress, but the creation of the common market is better seen as a process rather than as an event.
