Multinational Enterprises and Trade Policy comprises a selection of Alan Rugman’s most important and influential articles on the multinational enterprise and government policy.

This volume focuses on trade and investment policy as well as applications of the theory of internalization to government policy.

Topics covered include: strategic trade policy, the ‘double diamond’ framework, the ‘shelter’ theory, the issue of foreign control, the Canada–US Free Trade Agreement and NAFTA and recent contributions on business networks and competitiveness. Special attention is given to the role of multinational enterprises in Canada, Japan and Europe.
