Sauvant. 330 $aThe policy and technological context within which FDI takes place has changed dramatically in the last two decades. Countries around the world have become more open to FDI, and revolutions in information and communications technology have lowered the costs of internationalization. As a result, global FDI flows have swelled, but, just as important, the forms that it takes have become more complex. For instance, emerging markets are now spawning MNEs of their own, governments and private equity firms are engaging in FDI, global sourcing is becoming central to the strategies of many firms, and offshoring encompasses many services, including high-end R&D work. In turn, these developments are exposing the limitations of the fields theoretical foundations. This Festschrift in honour of Professor Yair Aharoni, a pioneer in the field of international business, looks at several of these new trends in FDI, what they will mean for firms and governments, and the opportunities created by these developments to enrich or extend extant theory. Contributors to the volume include the worlds leading international business scholars. 410 0$aResearch in global strategic management ;$vv. 15. 606 $aBusiness & Economics$xInternational$xGeneral$2bisacsh 606 $aBusiness & Economics$xStrategic Planning$2bisacsh 606 $aBusiness strategy$2bicssc 606 $aInvestment & securities$2bicssc 606 $aInvestments, Foreign 606 $aInvestments, Foreign$xForecasting 615 7$aBusiness & Economics$xInternational$xGeneral. 615 7$aBusiness & Economics$xStrategic Planning. 615 7$aBusiness strategy. 615 7$aInvestment & securities. 615 0$aInvestments, Foreign. 615 0$aInvestments, Foreign$xForecasting. 676 $a332.673 701 $aRamamurti$b Ravi$0126637 701 $aHashai$b Niron$01685765 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910823179503321 996 $aThe future of foreign direct investment and the multinational enterprise$94058151 997 $aUNINA
