The Multinational Traders
By: Geoffrey Jones
Abstract
This book examines the history and theory of multinational trading companies. The essays in this volume demonstrate the importance of trading companies in trade and investment flows in the world economy from the nineteenth century to the present day. The empirical research is based on studies of the US, Europe and Asia, and the authors adopt evolutionary and comparative perspectives to examine diversification strategies and organizational structures.
