The Internationalization of Corporate R&D: A Review of the Evidence and Some Policy Implications for Home Countries 1
A review of the existing evidence on the degree of internationalization of the innovative activities of multinational enterprises (MNEs) reveals three main trends. These are the continuing reliance of firms on the home country as a base for innovation, structural changes in MNEs toward more affiliate autonomy, and a small but growing presence of cross‐border innovative activities in a group of nontraditional host countries. We argue that these tr…

Making globalization good: The Moral Challenges of Global Capitalism
The Eclectic (OLI) Paradigm of International Production: Past, Present and Future
This article describes the origins, and traces the subsequent evolution of the eclectic paradigm from the mid-1950s to the present day. It does so in the light of the changing characteristics of MNE activity and of the global economic scenario. The article concludes by asserting that the eclectic paradigm still remains a powerful and robust framework for examining contextual specific theories of foreign direct investment and international product…
Industrial Development, Globalization and Multinational Enterprises: New Realities for Developing Countries
Globalization has changed economic realities. First, the competences of multinational enterprises (MNEs) are becoming increasingly mobile and knowledge-intensive. MNEs thus give more attention to the availability and quality of the created assets of alternative locations. Second, among developing countries there are now considerable differences between the catching-up countries (e.g. newly industrialized countries) and falling behind , less devel…

There, on the streets, the sentiments vigorously expressed by a diversity of NGO1 activists, reechoed those of several recent polemics2 which have focused on the darker sides of global capitalism and particularly on its perceived deleterious effe…
Governments, Globalization, and International Business
It is a cliché to say that we live in a globalized world in which investment flows. Communications, and the operations of multinationals from all parts of the world have changed the character of the international business environment. But they say the concept of globalization poses as many questions as it answers, and it is the purpose of this book to address these challenges. In Governments, Globalization, and International Business a prestigiou…

This paper examines such forces in the specific context of location choices made by offices of multinational enterprises (MNEs). Such enterprises emerge in response to particular market imperfections and to exploit particular 'ownership specific' advanta…

Trade, Location of Economic Activity and the MNE: A Search for an Eclectic Approach
The main task of this paper is to discuss ways in which production financed by foreign direct investment, that is, that undertaken by multinational enterprises (MNEs), has affected our thinking about the international allocation of resources and the exchange of goods and services between countries. The analysis takes, as its starting point, the growing convergence between the theories of international trade and production, and argues the case for…
