The Market mechanism
Description
Supply and demand is the basic relationship that fundamentally shapes any market-based economy. Module one of this program shows how S&D sets the price of a rose at the Aalsmeer flower auction in the Netherlands; module two reveals how Germany's Flensburger shipyard has survived in a shrinking market through capacity planning; and module three demonstrates how quality decisions ultimately led Bianchi to victory in the Giro d'Italia bicycle race.
