The European Subsidiaries of American Multinationals: an Exercise in Ecological Analysis

Jacques Delacroix

Chapter 5 in Organization Theory and the Multinational Corporation, 1993, pp 105-135 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Portentous and abrupt changes in the world economic order have recently rekindled public interest in the globalization of business. Students of international business thus face with renewed urgency the challenge of explaining the interaction between business organizations and their environment. This challenge is also an opportunity: large-scale environmental transformations constitute so many occasions to observe organizational reactions and proactions.
