THE PROVEN CHOICE FOR INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS

RELEVANT. PRACTICAL. INTEGRATED.

It is now more than a quarter of a century since work be- gan on the first edition of International Business: Compet- ing in the Global Marketplace. By the third edition the book was the most widely used international business text in the world. Since then its market share has only in- creased. The success of the book can be attributed to a number of unique features. Specifically, for the twelfth edition we have developed a learning program that

∙ Is comprehensive, state of the art, and timely. ∙ Is theoretically sound and practically relevant. ∙ Focuses on applications of international business

concepts. ∙ Tightly integrates the chapter topics throughout. ∙ Is fully integrated with results-driven technology. ∙ Takes full and integrative advantage of

globalEDGE.msu.edu—the Google-ranked #1 web resource for “international business resources.”

International Business, now in its twelfth edition, co- authored by Charles W. L. Hill and G. Tomas M. Hult, is a compre- hensive and case-oriented version of our text that lends itself to the core course in international business for those courses that want a deeper focus on the global monetary system, structure of international business, international accounting, and international finance. We cover more and integrated cases in International Business 12e and we provide a deeper treatment of the global capital market, the organization of an international business, interna- tional accounting, and international finance—topics that are allocated chapters in International Business 12e but are not attended to in the shorter treatment of IB in Global Business Today 10e. Like our shorter text, Global Business Today 10e (2017), International Business 12e, focuses on being current, rele- vant, application rich, accessible, and student focused. Our goal has always been to cover macro and micro is- sues equally and in a relevant, practical, accessible, and student focused approach. We believe that anything short of such a breadth and depth of coverage is a serious defi- ciency. Many of the students in these international busi- ness courses will soon be working in global businesses,

and they will be expected to understand the implications of international business for their organization’s strategy, structure, and functions in the context of the global mar- ketplace. We are proud and delighted to have put together this international business learning experience for the leaders of tomorrow. Over the years, and through now 12 editions, Dr. Charles Hill has worked hard to adhere to these goals. Since Global Business Today 9e (2015), and International Business 11e (2017), Charles’s co-author, Dr. Tomas Hult, follows the same approach. As a team, we have been guided not only by our own reading, teaching, and re- search but also by the invaluable feedback we received from professors and students around the world, from re- viewers, and from the editorial staff at McGraw-Hill Edu- cation. Our thanks go out to all of them.

RELEVANT AND COMPREHENSIVE

To be relevant and comprehensive, an international busi- ness package must

∙ Explain how and why the world’s cultures, coun- tries, and regions differ.

∙ Cover economics and politics of international trade and investment.

∙ Tackle international issues related to ethics, corpo- rate social responsibility, and sustainability.

∙ Explain the functions and form of the global mon- etary system.

∙ Examine the strategies and structures of interna- tional businesses.

∙ Assess the special roles of an international busi- ness’s various functions.

This text has always endeavored to be relevant, practical, and integrated. Too many other products have paid insuf- ficient attention to some portion of the topics mentioned, being skewed toward a particular portion of international business. Relevance and comprehensiveness also require cover- age of the major theories. It has always been a goal to incorporate the insights gleaned from recent academic scholarship into the book. Consistent with this goal,

xi

insights from the following research, as a sample of theoretical streams used in the book, have been incorporated:

∙ New trade theory and strategic trade policy. ∙ The work of Nobel Prize–winning economist

Amartya Sen on economic development. ∙ Samuel Huntington’s influential thesis on the

“clash of civilizations.” ∙ Growth theory of economic development champi-

oned by Paul Romer and Gene Grossman. ∙ Empirical work by Jeffrey Sachs and others on

the relationship between international trade and economic growth.

∙ Michael Porter’s theory of the competitive advan- tage of nations.

∙ Robert Reich’s work on national competitive advantage.

∙ The work of Nobel Prize–winner Douglass North and others on national institutional structures and the protection of property rights.

∙ The market imperfections approach to foreign direct investment that has grown out of Ronald Coase and Oliver Williamson’s work on transac- tion cost economics.

∙ Bartlett and Ghoshal’s research on the transna- tional corporation.

∙ The writings of C. K. Prahalad and Gary Hamel on core competencies, global competition, and global strategic alliances.

∙ Insights for international business strategy that can be derived from the resource-based view of the firm and complementary theories.

∙ Paul Samuelson’s critique of free trade theory. ∙ Conceptual and empirical work on global supply

chain management—logistics, purchasing (sourcing), operations, and marketing channels.

In addition to including leading-edge theory, in light of the fast-changing nature of the international business environment we have made every effort to ensure that this product was as up-to-date as possible when it went to press. A significant amount has happened in the world since we began revisions of this book. By 2018, more than $4 trillion per day was f lowing across na- tional borders and, as we will see in Chapter 1, trade across borders has almost exponentially increased in the last 15 years. The size of such flows fueled concern about the ability of short-term speculative shifts in global capital markets to destabilize the world economy.

What’s New in the Twelfth Edition

The world continued to become more global. Several Asian economies, most notably China and India, contin- ued to grow their economies at a rapid rate. New multina- tionals continued to emerge from developing nations in addition to the world’s established industrial powers. Increasingly, the globalization of the world economy affected a wide range of firms of all sizes, from the very large to the very small. And unfortunately, global terrorism and the attendant geopolitical risks keep emerging in various places glob- ally, many new and inconceivable just a decade ago. These represent a threat to global economic integration and activity. Plus, with the avenue of the United Kingdom opting to vote to leave the European Union, the election of President Donald Trump in the United States, and several elections around the world, the globe—in many ways—has paid more attention to nationalistic issues over trade. These topics and much more are integrated into this text for maximum learning opportunities. The success of the first eleven editions of International Business was based in part on the incorporation of leading- edge research into the text, the use of the up-to-date ex- amples and statistics to illustrate global trends and enterprise strategy, and the discussion of current events within the context of the appropriate theory. Building on these strengths, our goals for the twelfth edition have focused on the following:

1. Incorporate new insights from scholarly research.

2. Make sure the content covers all appropriate issues.

3. Make sure the text is up-to-date with events, statis- tics, and examples.

4. Add new and insightful opening and closing cases.

5. Incorporate value-added globalEDGE features in every chapter.

6. Connect every chapter to a focus on managerial implications.

7. Provide 20 new integrated cases that can be used as additional cases for specific chapters but, more importantly, as learning vehicles across multiple chapters.

As part of the overall revision process, changes have been made to every chapter in the book. All statistics have been updated to incorporate the most recently available data. As before, we are the only text in International Busi- ness that ensures that all material is up-to-date on virtu- ally a daily basis. The copyright for the book is 2019 but you are likely using the text in 2018, 2019, or 2020—we

xii

keep it updated to each semester you use the text in your course! We are able to do this by integrating globalEDGE features in every chapter. Specifically, the Google number-one-ranked globaledge.msu.edu site (for “interna- tional business resources”) is used in each chapter to add value to the chapter material and provide up-to-date data and information. This keeps chapter material constantly and dynamically updated for teachers who want to infuse globalEDGE material into the chapter topics, and it keeps students abreast of current developments in inter- national business. In addition to updating all statistics, figures, and maps to incorporate the most recently published data, a chapter-by-chapter selection of changes for the eleventh edition include the following:
