What is international management, and what is its domain?

Zaida L. Martínez and Brian Toyne

Journal of International Management, 2000, vol. 6, issue 1, 11-28

Abstract: We provide a review of the management field and the various meanings given to international when it prefaces the word management. We also review the paradigms associated with international business inquiry and find them helpful for defining the domain of international management inquiry. Finally, we conclude that a distinction needs to be made between management inquiry, one that extends beyond national borders. Internationalized management inquiry seeks to verify culture-bound management theories, concepts, and principles. International management inquiry adds either distinctive or unique knowledge to the body of management knowledge.
