This book was first published in 2011. The current financial and economic crisis has negatively underlined the vital role of multinational companies (MNCs) in our daily lives. The breakdown and crisis of flagship MNCs, such as Enron, WorldCom, Lehman Brothers, Toyota and General Motors, does not merely reveal the problems of corporate malfeasance and market dysfunction. It also raises important questions, both for the public and the academic community, about the use and misuse of power by MNCs in the wider society, as well as the exercise of power by key actors within internationally operating firms. This book examines how issues of power and politics affect MNCs at three different levels; the macro-level, the meso-level and the micro-level. This wide-ranging analysis shows not only that power matters but also how and why it matters, pointing to the political interactions of key power holders and actors within the MNC, both managers and employees.

Offering a forward-looking and critical approach to International Business, this textbook demonstrates how multinational enterprises (MNEs) shape and are shaped by a rapidly changing global environment. Bringing together established theories, emerging critical perspectives, and interdisciplinary insights, the book equips students to understand contemporary MNEs' strategies, the roles and interests of key actors, and the geographic and firm-level structures of international business activity. Through rich real-world examples, integrative case studies, themed boxes, and review questions, the book bridges theory and practice, fostering deeper engagement and reflective learning. Students are encouraged not only to analyse international business phenomena, but also to consider their ethical, social, environmental, and political consequences. Instructors have access to adaptable teaching resources, including lecture slides, discussion guides, and sample answers. Written for advanced undergraduate and graduate students, International Business: A Critical Approach prepares future managers, researchers, and policymakers to understand, interrogate, and responsibly shape global business.

Over the past decade, politics perspectives in international business have moved into the mainstream repertoire of research, theory development and teaching about the organisational behaviour of multinational corporations (MNCs). Politics perspectives contribute substantially to understanding the behaviour in and of MNCs in their different contexts and environments but so far these burgeoning perspectives have not been systematically and comprehensively reviewed. This book offers the first detailed overview of the theoretical foundations, methodologies and empirical applications of politics perspectives in MNCs. A group of international authors discuss twelve seminal contributions to the study of politics, power and conflict in MNCs, followed by a summary and synthesis of the literature into a comprehensive analytical framework. The book closes with a discussion of future directions in the field. This is a thorough introduction to political behaviour in MNCs written for scholars and graduate students in the fields of organisation studies and international business.
