Reviews

'This book features state-of-the art contributions on the interconnected phenomena of firm exits from foreign markets, relocation of production, and re-entry. Its mix of conceptual and empirical studies is a must-read for anyone interested in an assessment of the literature on this topic and in where we might go from here.' -- Jean-Francois Hennart, Tilburg University, the Netherlands and Aalborg University, Denmark 'IB scholars often focus on firms' initial forays overseas, but pay less attention to what happens when these forays are unsuccessful. The seventeen chapters in this excellent volume consider why and how firms stop exporting, divest their overseas subsidiaries, relocate their overseas operations, and/or re-enter markets, and should be essential reading for anyone interested in the dynamics of international business.' -- Roger Strange, University of Sussex Business School, UK
