This volume includes contributing chapters from authors based in
Asia, Europe, and North America to examine an emerging topic in the
international management field - managing multinationals in a
knowledge economy. They were selected to reflect the influences of
three key factors - economics, culture, and human resources - on
managerial decisions that affect multinationals and their effective
operations. Leading the volume is an invited article by John H.
Dunning, "An Evolving Paradigm of the Economic Determinants of
International Business Activity." It presents a comprehensive
review of his thirty-plus years of research on the eclectic
paradigm, and a preview of his most recent work on the role of
relational and institutional assets in foreign direct investment.
This article, along with commentaries on Dunning's work written by
Jose de la Torre, Timothy Devinney, Will Mitchell, and Stephen
Tallman, can be found in the Research Forum section.
The present volume also includes five other articles selected
through a double-blind review process. They complement the Research
Forum papers, which focus on the economic determinants of
international business activity, by examining critical cultural and
human resource issues faced by multinationals. These include: the
role of culture in entry mode decisions, the impact of national
context on top management teams, cultural attributes of Russian
management, the utilization of managerial expatriates, and the
bridging of theory and practice in international human resource
management research. A review of the volume's ten chapters suggests
that, despite all the technological advances in cross-border
communication and coordination, social capitaland human resources
are the most critical factors possessed by multinationals.
