Description

This volume examines the policy choices and actions of the largest business corporations and the three national governments in North America (Canada, the United States, and Mexico) as they respond to the enormous changes in technology and trade policies that began in the early 1980s and have continued in the 1990s. Multinationals in North America focuses on multinational enterprises (MNEs) and nation states in the context of regional free trade (the Canada-U.S. Free Trade Agreement, FTA, and the North American Free Trade Agreement, NAFTA), and technological change as the underlying technology paradigm shifts from mass production to flexible production. MNEs and nation states are actors faced by change and, at the same time, are agents of change. Contributors examine the strategic options and interactions of MNEs and nation states as they attempt to manage their activities in a globalized economy.
