At the beginning of the 2000s one of the three authors asked the provoking and contentious question: Is the international business research agenda running out of steam? This textbook is proof to the contrary; that international business is more relevant and vibrant than ever before. Numerous topical and updated real-life cases complement and give life to proven and new theories and concepts, such as the global factory. This international business textbook certainly sets a new standard in the field. * Professor Bent Petersen, Copenhagen Business School *
This International Business textbook is a welcome addition to existing IB teaching materials. The authors use the global factory as their basic model for understanding current international business organizations and take care throughout the book to explicitly discuss how the topics in each chapter have implications for the global factory and how it is organized and managed. At the same time, interesting business cases of various lengths, and very importantly, covering diverse international settings, as well as debate questions and challenges related to theory and practice, provide the input for stimulating interactive classes. Supported by a pleasant and structured lay-out this lively textbook has all the elements in place for successful international business education the world over. * Dr Rian Drogendijk, University of Groningen *
This book is a momentous effort, covering a comprehensive spectrum of issues related to international business, from the traditional ones of exporting and foreign direct investment, to current concerns about corporate social responsibility and anti-globalization sentiments. Solidly grounded on the the global factory framework, it is a unique and well-written textbook that systematically deals with both operative and strategic aspects of international business. * Professor Gabriel R.G. Benito, BI Norwegian Business School *
