Global Strategy

Catalog description

This course analyzes the international business environment, defined as the economic, political, and social factors that shape firms' global strategies. We seek to explain the ways in which - and the reasons why - countries differ in policies and institutions relevant to the firm. The course places special emphasis on the political and institutional economy facing the business, which means we study how international and domestic politics as well as institutions influence continuity and change in the rules governing international economic transactions.
