Finding ways to alleviate global poverty poses a major challenge
for political leaders and intellectuals worldwide. The contributors
to this volume, top scholars of international business, examine the
effects of globalization on the developing world and address ways
in which multinational corporations (MNCs) can play a positive role
in the fight against poverty.The essays illustrate how, by creating
new business models, multinational enterprises are best equipped to
relieve global poverty. By making investments among the poor - in
pursuit of profit and shareholder wealth rather than as charity -
the economic activity generated by investments would go a long way
towards reducing poverty. The contributors show how following this
strategy would lead to today's poor becoming part of the economy
and emerging as visible customers for MNCs. They address the many
facets of this plan in chapters on: MNCs and host environment and
policies, strategies and their impact, governments and civil
society, international business models, and global institutions and
social responsibility. This unique solution to poverty reduction
will be of great interest to scholars of international relations
and business, international corporate managers and executives,
government officials, and NGO executives dealing with global
matters.
