European economies are becoming increasingly integrated, and at the
same time, the world economy is becoming global. This has raised
questions about the specific strategies followed by transnational
companies. It also raises the issue of whether the drive towards
integration is compatible with that towards globalization
strategies; whether, and to what extent, they strengthen each
other. "European Integration and Global Corporate Strategies"
explores the links between the options of world-wide globalization
and European integration which are open to today's corporations,
highlighting whether there are conflicts or complementaries between
them. The book is divided into two parts: the first part looks at
specific mechanisms and trends of globalization in the context of
changes due to European integration. The second part considers the
role of innovation and technology diffusion as part of the
integration and globalization strategies. All the contributors are
experts from Britain, Italy, the Netherlands and Spain. This book
should be of particular interest to students and researchers in the
fields of business, economics, politics and European studies.
