The early research on multinational enterprises usually relied on
traditional economic theory or relatively simple but powerful
theories developed in the field of international business. They
were developed to help us understand why firms entered
international markets.
However, as the field of international management has developed
further, with more scholars from adjacent disciplines conducting
research on issues of importance to international markets and
multinational firms, newer, more diverse and complex theoretical
perspectives have been developed. The present volume involves a
series of invited papers focused partly on Professor Doz??'s recent
work and on other newer and important theoretical perspectives on
the multinational enterprise. These works are authored by a number
of top scholars in the field from North America and Europe. The
intent of this volume is to highlight and emphasize the new and
diverse theoretical foci in this field (e.g., management of large
groups in emerging markets, international entrepreneurship and the
liabilities of foreignness) and serve as a catalyst to the
increasingly important research designed to help us understand and
build a theory of the multinational firm.
The book is divided into three parts, with the first focused on
the new and visible theory of the metanational firm by Yves Doz and
comments on this work and Yves Doz??'s broader contributions to the
field by three top scholars in the international management field.
The second part contains two works that examine the evolving nature
of theory on the multinational firm in international management
research. The third part contains five papers that present diverse
yet highlyimportant theoretical perspectives on the multinational
enterprise. This work provides a base upon which future excellent
research in the field of international management will be
advanced.
