Questions related to managing people in hostile environments have
become more central on the agenda of business leaders and HR
professionals in multinational corporations (MNCs). This is due to
developments such as the increase of terrorism or the political
instability in many regions. In consequence, research on the role
of HR in hostile environments has increased, though it can still be
considered in its early stages. Danger and Risk as Challenges for
HRM: Managing People in Hostile Environments adds to this emerging
field of research by investigating the management of people in
hostile environments from conceptual as well as empirical
perspectives. It delivers an essential and comprehensive overview
and gives deep insight into this highly relevant topic from leading
authors in the field. This book will be of great value to scholars
and researchers interested in the role of human resource management
(HRM) in hostile environments, people management in companies in
conflict-affected areas and to those interested in new grounds in
HR Research. The chapters in this book were originally published as
a special issue of the International Journal of Human Resource
Management.
This book provides state-of-the art research on expatriate
management from a European perspective. Considering issues related
to the different phases of expatriation and comprehensive
contemporary topics of expatriate management, the chapters present
a long overdue holistic approach to the field. Rather than just
publishing a counterweight to the predominant North American
literature, Expatriate Management includes critical analyses of
each chapter written by a number of renowned North American
scholars to review and contribute to the trans-Atlantic dialogue.
