This book explores how multinational corporations solve business marketing problems encountered in large emerging country markets such as China, India, Russia and Poland. These countries are involved in the final stage of the globalization of markets, defined as the third wave of internationalization of firms. Hans Jansson finds that traditional ideas and frameworks used for analyzing, forming and implementing industrial marketing in mature markets are in need of adjustment before they are applied to emerging country markets. Accordingly, he develops the international business marketing model to address the specific challenges afforded by these markets, and explores strategic business marketing issues such as: the adaptation of European firms' international marketing of products and projects to local networks and institutions in emerging country markets, especially to Chinese and Russian business networks relationship marketing during the internationalization process and of firms with diverse international experience the inter-linking of local and regional hubs' external market networks with internal organization networks. International Business Marketing in Emerging Country Markets will strongly appeal to a broad academic audience, including students, lecturers and researchers with an interest in international marketing and business. Marketing and management consultants will also find much to interest them within this unique book.

Rapidly growing investment in Southeast Asia poses a major strategic and organizational challenge for European transnational corporations. In addition to establishing and maintaining profitable businesses in these strongly local markets, transnationals now have to integrate their Southeast Asian operations into their global strategies and operations. Transnational Corporations in Southeast Asia presents an institutional economic approach which describes and explains the local and regional organization of seventeen European transnational corporations in Southeast Asian markets in relation to their worldwide organization. Focusing on the period from 1984 to 1991, the book also includes a detailed account of the establishment strategies of these corporations and their major operations in the region. Professor Jansson utilizes a transaction-cost theory to explain behaviour within the European transnational corporations. Providing researchers, students and business analysts with detailed information on the experience of key transnational corporations in Southeast Asia, this important book also offers an assessment of the effects of marginal activities on multinational corporations in areas far away from their home base.

Direct foreign investment by transnational corporations is of increasing importance for developing nations and has major implications for legislators, policymakers and business leaders. The State and Transnational Corporations is one of the first books to show how transnational corporations build contacts with various levels of government to legitimize their operations in a country and obtain favourable decisions. Using data and figures from detailed interviews with transnational corporation executives, the authors examine the strategies transnational corporations pursue towards governments, how the two interact, on what issues and at which levels, and how these contacts are developed and maintained. Through the exchange of information and favours, transnational corporations - often using local agents - are shown to be able to develop stable and trustworthy relationships with governments. The strong theoretical structure used in this study, drawing on both the network approach and institutionalist theory, emphasizes the cooperative nature of this relationship. Researchers and students of international business, international marketing and international relations, as well as government officials and policymakers, will welcome the rigorous, empirical approach of this volume with its emphasis on the cooperative nature of state-corporate relations.
