International Management is an international, international-management book.
The previous four editions were used in over 200 universities and colleges in over
20 countries. The fifth edition, we hope, will have even wider usage. Why our optimism?
In brief, it is because the book focuses on issues of international management
common and important to businesspeople everywhere.
International Management is about how firms become and remain international
in scope. It focuses on the experiences of firms of all sizes, from many countries,
as they come to grips with an increasingly competitive global environment.
A central theme is the practice of management when a home-market perspective
is no longer enough to achieve and sustain success. Through carefully selected
comprehensive case studies and integrated text material, this book bridges both the
internationalization process and multinational management.
Many texts focus on ongoing management issues in the world’s larger MNEs—
the lower right-hand cell in the following matrix. This is an important area, but one
that presupposes a long history of experience and acquired skills. Our text takes a
broader view, examining small and medium sized firms as well as large MNEs,
and the process of internationalization as well as the challenges of ongoing management
in multinationals.
Ongoing Multinational
Internationalization Management
SmallMedium-Sized Firms Smaller domestic firms Global niche competitors

Larger MNEs Larger firms moving into Large, full-scale global
more markets competitors
The first half of International Management helps to demystify international
business so a meaningful study of multinational management can occur. We focus
on internationalization—developing an awareness of the impact of international
forces on the firm’s future and establishing and conducting transactions with firms
internationally. We provide an understanding about the basic modes of involvement
and deciding when each is most appropriate. For each mode, both inwardand
outward-looking perspectives are considered: licensing as licensor and licensee,
trade exporting and importing, joint ventures with foreign companies
abroad and at home, and subsidiaries establishing foreign affiliates and as part
of a foreign-controlled affiliate. As the left-hand cells in the matrix suggest, these
issues are relevant for firms of all sizes.
In the second half of the book, we focus on how to establish a balance between the
sometimes conflicting demands of the multinational headquarters, the multinational
subsidiary, and the governments of all the countries in which the MNE operates. The
cases are not limited to the experiences of the world’s largest MNEs—they are also
about smaller companies that must be global to survive and about the management of
small subsidiaries. Nor are the cases solely focussed on the experience of MNEs from
one country. In 1970, two-thirds of the world’s largest companies were from the
United States. Now only about one-fourth are U.S.-headquartered.
International Management is intended for use in international business and international
management courses at the undergraduate, graduate, and executive levels.
It can serve as the basis for an overarching course that deals with internationalization
and multinational management, or for courses in each topic area. The
chapters of text material can and should be supplemented with readings of the
instructor’s choice. Many of the suggested supplementary readings are from the
Journal of International Business Studies which provides blanket permission to
photocopy articles for classroom use at no charge.
This edition contains more cases 32 versus 31 and more chapters of text 15
versus 13 than the fourth edition. Of the 32 cases, 18 are new to the fifth edition;
others have been significantly revised and updated. The new cases were selected
on the basis of managerial relevance, overall fit with suggested themes, availability,
and their effectiveness in the classroom. In regard to text material, there are entirely
new chapters on Ethics, Managing the Global Workforce, and Strengthening
International Government Relations, while all other chapters have been revised
and updated. All but one of the chapters were coauthored by us or one of our current
or past colleagues. This has allowed us the opportunity to shape the body of
text material into an integrated whole.
The cases in International Management have been extensively classroomtested
by us and colleagues around the world in executive, MBA, and undergraduate
programs. Many are bestsellers. Another measure of their quality is that a
number of them have been translated—into Japanese, French, Chinese, Spanish,
Russian, and Indonesian. As well, several have won awards, including “The Global
Branding of Stella Artois.”
