Description
This book is a compilation of essays on the nature of the transnational firm. The essays are written by various experts in the field and cover a variety of topics, such as the origins of the transnational firm, the different types of transnational firms, and the effects of globalization on the transnational firm.
The Nature of the Transnational Firm brings together the major approaches to the transnational firm in one volume. Leading thinkers present overviews of a vibrant theoretical literature and assess the current state of analysis. Thoroughly revised and updated to take account the explosive growth of foreign direct investment in the 1990s, this volume will be welcomed by students and researchers of international business, international economics and business economics. Contributors include: John Cantwell, John H. Dunning, Edward M. Graham, Jean-Francois Hennart, Neil Kay.
