内容説明
This unique textbook provides a comprehensive critical analysis of modern theories, concepts and effects relating to transnational corporations and international production. Its user-friendly presentation includes boxes to highlight key concepts as well as suggestions for further reading.
The text begins with a clear and concise discussion of basic concepts, and goes on to examine various theoretical approaches, topics and authors including:
* Hymer, Vernon, Knickerbocker, Aliber, Dunning, Cantwell, Cowling and Sugden
* the Internalisation Theory, the Scandinavian School, and the New Trade Theory approaches
* Pre-WWII Marxist and neoclassical approaches to international investment.
Finally, Grazia Ietto-Gillies deals with methodological issues in the assessment of effects as well as with specific effects on performance, labour, international trade and the balance of payments.
Bringing together wide-ranging research literature on TNCs for the first time, this textbook will be invaluable to post graduate and advanced undergraduate students of a variety of disciplines including business/international business, economics, international relations, and development studies. Lecturers and researchers wishing to familiarize themselves with the theoretical developments of the subject will also find the book of enormous interest.
