Multinationals from Small Countries, vol 1

Edited by Tamir Agmon () and Charles P. Kindleberger

in MIT Press Books from The MIT Press

Abstract: It is generally known that the United States, a large country, has spawned business corporations that transcend international boundaries—"multinationals." What is not generally known is that many smaller countries are rapidly following suit—they too are opening and expanding international operations for their own local firms. This book is the first organized effort by scholars to deal with non-American international corporations as a general phenomenon. Initially presented at a colloquium devoted to the subject held at MIT in January 1976, these seven essays bring to light the relatively unpublicized international activities of firms originating in a number of geographically and economically diverse smaller countries.
