Edited by Klaus E. Meyer, Professor of International Business, Ivey Business School, Western University, Canada
'A well designed and first rate collection of some of the most influential papers on the interaction between MNEs and the host countries in which they operate. In these two volumes, Professor Meyer has cleverly orchestrated most of the economic and social issues of interest and concern to scholars, business practitioners, governments, and civil society. These essays deserve the most serious attention by all those interested in the ever increasing role of MNEs and their subsidiaries in the global economy.'- John Dunning, University of Reading, UK and Rutgers University, US
