Chapter 6 in Multinational Corporations, Technology and Employment, 1983, pp 121-140 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract In the last chapter, the role of MNCs in employment generation was discussed in terms of the choice of technology and the substitution between capital and labour. In this chapter we shall examine another aspect of employment generation from the point of view of the propensity to export of MNCs compared with local firms.
