What is international business? How serious are multinational enterprises about corporate responsibility? How does a gearbox made in China end up in a car sold in Europe? In today's increasingly connected world, international business plays an integral role in day-to-day life. This introductory textbook offers a refreshingly critical approach to international business, examining both good and bad practice and encouraging readers to question and challenge classic assumptions and theories. Drawing on a range of vivid case examples and insights from small businesses to large multinational companies, readers are provided with a realistic depiction of the challenges and opportunities international business can present. Importantly, this book adopts a truly international approach and includes an abundance of examples from countries across the globe, particularly Brazil, Russia, India and China.
