Abstract: Abstract This article examines Yadong Luo’s recent contributions to the study of geopolitics and international business and offers directions for future research. At the heart of Luo’s scholarship lies the concept of fragmented globalization, which underscores the transition from a liberal, rules-based multilateral order to a fragmented global landscape shaped by nationalistic interventionism, techno-nationalism, and pragmatic inclusivity. I explore Luo’s assertion that fragmented globalization represents a paradigm shift in international business, necessitating a renewed focus on the political dimensions of the field. I also discuss how Luo’s research helps inform the development of a business-grounded perspective on international business policy.
