What is international business? How does it differ from local or national business? What are the fundamental challenges and emerging trends in international business? What is the impact of globalization, corporate social responsibility, and the ever expanding use of digital technology on corporate strategies and executive decisions?

Key Features: - Unpacks the complex issues facing both multi-national enterprises (MNE) and international small and medium enterprises (SME) - Contains a full range of learning features including international case studies, explanations of key terms, a glossary, and annotated further reading - A dedicated companion website with material to support both lecturers and students.

Government intervention can reduce the profits of multinational enterprises. These interventions also increase uncertainty and risk and distort trading and intra-firm sourcing patterns. The focus of this book is a corporate survival plan that describes how a multinational can monitor its exposure to intervention and then seek to reduce it. It reports on the successes and failures of firms as they implement various global management systems and recommends a general strategy. Such a strategy will allow multinationals to continue foreign investment with the longer term horizons that will benefit both the firms and their host countries.

This volume originates from the editors' interest in one of the most relevant fields of research these days: Intercultural and International Business Communication. The needs of the business world to communicate effectively at an international level in order to overcome language differences have proved to be a fascinating topic for many scholars. International business discourse is culturally-situated and therefore context-dependent, and all three - discourse, culture and context - play a key role in the communication process. The present contributions analyse this topic under the perspective of theory, research and teaching. Different scholars have offered their views on the subject, presenting contributions on different areas related to business communication all over the world.

International business strategies orbit around the idea of strengthening partnerships with other countries. Developing new and innovative opportunities to connect neighboring countries bodes well for those countries and the entire world. The Belt and Road Strategy intends to do just that by strengthening partnerships and constructing a comprehensive and multilevel interconnected network to achieve pluralistic, independent, balanced, and sustainable development. The Belt and Road Strategy in International Business and Administration is a vital collection of information that discusses one of most important programs embodying economic, regional, and political demands in the Asian and European environment. Featuring research on topics such as business development, business law, and multinational enterprise, this book is ideally designed for government officials, professionals, researchers, students, and professors seeking coverage on the theoretical and practical contributions of international business.

There is extraordinary variation in how governments treat multinational corporations in emerging economies; in fact, governments around the world have nationalized or eaten away at the value of foreign-owned property in violation of international treaties. This even occurs in poor countries, where governments are expected to, at a minimum, respect the contracts they make with foreign firms lest foreign capital flee. In The Shield of Nationality, Rachel Wellhausen introduces foreign-firm nationality as a key determinant of firms' responses to government breaches of contract. Firms of the same nationality are likely to see a compatriot's broken contract as a forewarning of their own problems, leading them to take flight or fight. In contrast, firms of other nationalities are likely to meet the broken contract with apparent indifference. Evidence includes quantitative analysis and case studies that draw on field research in Ukraine, Moldova, and Romania.
