Reviews

'A challenging research monograph that will appeal to international business scholars in the area of transaction cost economics (TCE), political risk, multinational enterprise (MNE) host country bargaining, and international joint ventures. It offers both theoretical and empirical advances in this area.' -- Alan Rugman, Journal of International Business Studies 'This path-breaking book joins transaction cost economics and positive political theory to uncover the risks and work out the organizational ramifications of international investments. Academics, public policy analysts, and the business community all have a stake in these issues. Henisz should be read with interest and profit (variously defined) by all three.' -- From the foreword by Oliver E. Williamson
