International Business, Multi-Nationals, and the Nationality of the Company
Editat de Boris Gehlen, Christian Marx, Alfred Reckendreesen Limba Engleză Hardback – 11 dec 2023
The chapters in this book address many international business domains, covering political risk, liability of foreignness, cultural distance, headquarters change, and tax planning. They use different methodological approaches to analyse European and US-based MNEs in Europe, Africa, and South-East Asia from 1900 to 1980. The book argues that ‘nationality’ is not a ghost from the past in international business, it is a topic that requires substantial consideration.
The chapters in this book were originally published in the journal Business History.
