Multinationals, Institutions and the Construction of Transnational Practices de Anthony Ferner

Multinationals, Institutions and the Construction of Transnational Practices: Convergence and Diversity in the Global Economy

Anthony Ferner

Javier Quintanilla

C. Sánchez-Runde

This text considers how multinationals transfer structures, policies and practices across national borders. It is contributed to by experts in the field of employment relations, and combines empirical material with a theoretical approach. The essays advance comparative institutionalist theory at both the macro-level and the micro-level.
