Towards an Extension of Multi-National Corporations of European Origin: Implications for Industrial Relations

Jacques Houssiaux

Chapter Chapter 16 in Transnational Industrial Relations, 1972, pp 341-350 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Experts in international economics often emphasise the asymmetrical nature of trade between industrial countries.1 The explanation involving the role of the product cycle in international trade stresses the time lag in demand for new products according to the country as a reason for changes in trade patterns from the point of view of time.2 This theory is generally supported by an explanation based on an examination of technological gaps between countries3: at a given time in their historical and technological developments, some countries are unable to turn out goods for which advanced technology is required.
