Abstract

A liberal, open, competitive, market‐oriented economy, with all its variations, is an eminently better strategy for economic progress than its alternative, the state‐managed economic system. This thesis is seemingly simple yet so complex for economic policymakers to understand.

Abstract

Cross‐national strategy as opposed to country‐by‐country strategy may take place on a regional or on a global basis. This paper examines the European regional office experience of 16 large U.S. firms in terms of (1) the types of responsibilities they handle and why, (2) the problems of removing control and/or duties from country subsidiaries, and (3) the relationship between a regional and global strategy and implementation. The companies' experiences have been quite diverse, thus highlighting multiple opportunities but the need to approach the development of regional operations cautiously. In spite of some problems, the future for European regional management seems bright.

Abstract

International business programs became realities in the 1950s, but only at two universities: Columbia and Indiana. In the 1960s, more universities added IB programs and departments; the 1970s saw even more added as universities realized that IB programs would enhance their reputations, improve student knowledge and expertise, and enhance companies’ future success. In 1974, the AACSB added internationalization as a requirement for business schools, forcing even more to enhance the international dimensions of their courses, programs, and faculty. Now virtually all B-schools have become global to some extent, although major differences remain in the quantity and quality of their internationalization.

Abstract

What do we need to assure U.S. competitiveness? Participants in the current debate on that question tend to talk as though the economic policies and world competitiveness of U.S. industry were somehow separate when, in fact, world competitiveness is where the economic policies of the nation finally get tested. The crying need is to tie economic policy to business competitiveness, and not treat them like strangers.
