"What contribution can studies of multinationals from emerging countries make to the development of theories in international business? Do they influence the practice of international management? The story of Brazilian multinationals is closely related to the country's industrialization choices. Since the 1950s, subsidiaries of the most prestigious foreign multinationals have played a key role in Brazilian economic development, creating, in the process, a very competitive domestic market. On top of that, government interventions in the last few decades were inconsistent and contradictory, resulting in a series of economic crises. Only the most resilient Brazilian firms were able to survive and prosper in that challenging environment. This book analyzes a variety of leading Brazilian multinationals, looking at both their competences and their competitive strategies in different settings. To do so, an innovative analytical framework based on international business, international operations management and international human resources management is developed and applied both to Brazilian multinationals and to firms from Latin America, India and China. This provides a novel insight into the dynamic movements of firms that engage in international operations and trade, as well as an understanding of the rationales and strategies that lead firms to outperform in the global economy"--

"Companies are increasingly asking which of their value chain activities are best performed within their own company and which may be outsourced. In addition, they are also considering which pieces of their value chain may be better performed abroad. These interrelated decisions concerning outsourcing and offshoring have not only changed entire industries, they have also transformed the lives of people across the world. Hundreds of millions of jobs in emerging nations have been the direct result of outsourcing and offshoring decisions. At the same time, many people in the developed world have lost their jobs because a company has been able to find a cheaper alternative. Featuring contributions from scholars in eleven different countries, this book is the first to examine the theory and practice of outsourcing and offshoring simultaneously. It includes studies of a variety of different industries, including pharmaceuticals, automobiles, medical records, appliances, human resource management, and telecommunications"--Provided by publisher.
