The Regulation of Multinational Corporations

Alan Rugman

Chapter 7 in Inside the Multinationals 25th Anniversary Edition, 2006, pp 119-141 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Multinational enterprises are recognized as a dominant force in the world of today. European and Japanese based multinationals have rivalled US ones in their growth and economic impact on many nations in recent years. Undoubtedly multinationals are of great importance. Recently a new explanation of the multinational enterprise has been developed by economists, called the theory of internalization. In this section the implications of internalization theory are applied to answer questions concerned with the regulation of multinational enterprises by host nations such as Canada.
