Handbook of International Business Policy

Presenting essential research on contemporary foreign direct investment policies, this Handbook identifies the wide variety of global policy challenges linked to modern technological, geostrategic and entrepreneurial developments, from electoral uncertainties to rapid digitalization.

This comprehensive Handbook adopts a novel, forward-thinking approach to international business policy by reflecting not only on current issues such as the prolonged economic impact of COVID-19, but also on likely future challenges and their potential solutions. Divided into three thematic parts, chapters investigate different types of public policy and how they can impact international business, examine how international business policy can impact a firm’s strategy, and analyze the global challenges facing international business policies. Ultimately, this Handbook addresses the imperfect nature of current policies and asserts that challenges must be addressed on multiple jurisdictional levels.

The Handbook of International Business Policy will be an excellent resource for academics and researchers focusing on economics, international business and innovation. Due to its practical implications for global industries, it will also be an important read for managers and policymakers.
