International Business

Subject:

The process of globalization induces managers – even of smaller firms – to expand their strategic horizons beyond national borders. This first part of the course on Economics of International Business provides students with an understanding of the operations of multinational enterprises (MNEs) and the interaction of their activities with national and international economies. This course addresses the international dimensions of economics and management and is internationally comparative throughout. It focuses on the nature and structure of international operations of MNEs, the impact that the complexity of the international business environment has on MNE strategy and operations, and on the consequences of international business for national economies and their international (trade) relations. At the end of this part of the course, students are able to analyze and explain the strategies, structures and impact of multinational firms from both an economic and a managerial perspective.
