Avoiding Corporate Marginalisation

Chapter 17 in Can South and Southern Africa become Globally Competitive Economies?, 1996, pp 196-203 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The theme of this conference is a subject of great concern to the Clinton administration. The United States has traditionally focused its international economic and commercial policy on Europe and Japan but, while the industrial nations will continue to be its largest markets for decades to come, the US Department of Commerce has recognised that another category of country holds far more promise for large incremental gains in exports. It has designated these nations the ‘Big Emerging Markets’ (BEMs) and has identified them as China, Indonesia, South Korea, India, Turkey, Poland, Argentina, Brazil, Mexico and South Africa.
