These developments have increased the interdependencies among previously separated economies, given rise to arguments regarding the flattening of the world. Yet, firms investing overseas continue to experience substantial liabilities stemming from their foreignness. At the same time new locations are appearing on the global map that offers very attractive location-specific advantages. In addition, the range of participants in international competition has widened, in terms of both the number of countries involved and the types of firms competing, to encompass developed market firms expanding beyond industrialized countries, and emerging market firms joining global competition. The focus of this volume is on how the interface between firm-specific advantages, liability of foreignness, and location-specific advantages are spelled out in the more global world. 410 0$aAdvances in international management ;$vv. 24. 606 $aBusiness & Economics$xInternational$xGeneral$2bisacsh 606 $aPolitical Science$xGlobalization$2bisacsh 606 $aBusiness & Economics$xGeneral$2bisacsh 606 $aInternational business$2bicssc 606 $aGlobalization 615 7$aBusiness & Economics$xInternational$xGeneral. 615 7$aPolitical Science$xGlobalization. 615 7$aBusiness & Economics$xGeneral. 615 7$aInternational business. 615 0$aGlobalization. 676 $a337 676 $a338.9 701 $aAsmussen$b Christian Geisler$01697404 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910825758703321 996 $aDynamics of globalization$94078077 997 $aUNINA
