British Manufacturing Investment Overseas (RLE International Business) (Hardcover): David Shepherd, Aubrey Silberston, Roger... British Manufacturing Investment Overseas (RLE International Business) (Hardcover)
David Shepherd, Aubrey Silberston, Roger Strange
R1,478 Discovery Miles 14 780 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

This study analyses the causes of British manufacturing investment overseas, focusing primarily on the period from the mid 1960s to the mid 1980s. During these years there were significant changes in UK direct investment and this book represented the first major analysis of these changes based on detailed case studies of British international firms. The early chapters assess the available statistical evidence and the theories of overseas investment that had hitherto been put forward. The authors emphasize the need for recognizing the dynamic and varied nature of firms and the relevance of their historical development in order to understand business decision-making. Through a detailed consideration of the activities of a large sample of companies, the book explains why they manufacture abroad and assesses the overall consequences for the British economy of its overseas investment.

R4,604 Discovery Miles 46 040 Ships in 12 - 17 working days


China is under close scrutiny both as a market that could provide massive returns to investors and because of its potential to become the most powerful economy in Asia. This new study examines the economic relationship between China and Europe, its importance and how it is likely to evolve.
The book considers the flow of trade, direct investment and technology transfer and contains case studies of manufacturing industries (automobiles, toys, watches, telecommunications) banking and insurance. The trade relationship between Europe and China is being re-evaluated by both sides and this is a valuable contribution to that process.

Japanese Manufacturing Investment in Europe - Its Impact on the UK Economy (Hardcover): Roger Strange Japanese Manufacturing Investment in Europe - Its Impact on the UK Economy (Hardcover)
Roger Strange
R3,570 Discovery Miles 35 700 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Japanese manufacturing investment in the European Community has grown dramatically over the last twenty years. At first, instances of investment were few, concentrated in a small number of industrial sectors. But since the mid-1980's there has been a surge of investment in a much wider range of industries.
This volume details the growth of Japanese manufacturing investment in Europe in fourteen industrial sectors. The impact of Japanese competition and direct investment on European industries is considered in the context of the emergence of the three major trading blocs: the United States, Japan and the EC. Roger Strange concludes by making important policy recommendations, and arguing for the need for a new theoretical framework for assessing the political economy of foreign direct investment.

International Business and Sustainable Development (Hardcover): Alain Verbeke, Rob van Tulder, Roger Strange International Business and Sustainable Development (Hardcover)
Alain Verbeke, Rob van Tulder, Roger Strange
R4,773 Discovery Miles 47 730 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Sustainable development is one of the key challenges of our time. It has social, ecological and economic dimensions, which makes it also a multi-faceted and complex problem. International Business scholars have stressed that the Multinational Enterprise should be considered the most important vehicle through which sustainable development occurs in developing countries. However, actual study of the topic remains fraught with theoretical and empirical caveats. This eighth volume in the Progress in International Business Research series includes new texts from a number of leading scholars and opinion leaders in the area. Contributors develop new levels of analysis (in particular global value chains or the partnership strategies of firms) that present promising areas for new theoretical and empirical insights. Whilst authors from leading international institutes are brought together in this volume, younger scholars with innovative ideas also offer valuable insights.
