Description and Table of Contents
Description
This handbook takes a three-part approach that helps to understand and chart scholarship in the discipline of International Business (IB). The chapters in part 1 briefly discuss the scholarly landscape in IB, identify new ways of advancing the current literature, and highlight some ways in which to do so. The chapters in part 2 discuss current topics IB scholars should focus on, how to understand them, the challenges involved, and the role of interdisciplinary outreach. The chapters in part 3 discuss IB's broader societal role along several dimensions of relevance to scholars and practitioners.
IB researchers, management scholars, and practitioners can use this book to enhance their current knowledge and nurture new ideas based on the chapters written by some of the world's leading experts.
