This is a unique and one-of-a-kind anthology! This casebook was first published as "Davidson/de la Torre, Managing the Global Corporation", in 1989. It was the first modern case anthology for a graduate audience. This edition contains the broadest case collection of companies and countries available in a single anthology. A full 60 per cent of the cases are non-U.S.based firms. Companies in Australia, Hong Kong, China, Mexico, South American, India, South Africa and Europe are featured as case studies. Many of these cases were written in connection with the authors' own work consulting with the organization, making the information in-depth and credible.
