The chapters in this book provide detailed analyses of a range of
issues that feed into an overview of the strategic development of
the MNE over the past 40 years. This modeled as the evolution of
the MNE from a multidomestic hierarchy to a network hierarchy to
the contemporary strategic diversity of the heterarchy. The
extensive range of empirical and conceptual analysis covers the
strategic roles and competitive evolution of subsidiaries; the
positioning of R&D labs of MNEs; how MNEs' R&D and product
development programmes relate to, and affect the performance of,
countries' national systems of innovation; the ways in which
dispersed subsidiaries and labs now work to support both the
effective use of current competitive technologies and the
generation of new sources of competitiveness for global firms. An
underlying theme of the book, that is also developed conceptually,
is how the global operations of MNEs involve selective involvement
with national economies and the implications of this for
globalization and economic development.
