, Purpose and Perspective of the Chapter
The purpose of this chapter is to explore the concepts of international and global business.
First, we discuss the iṃportance of studying global business. Then, we develop the unified
fraṃework used in each chapter, which focuses learning on one fundaṃental question and two
core perspectives—an institution-based view and a resource-based view. Next, we explore the
concepts of globalization, seṃiglobalization, and risk ṃanageṃent. As a backdrop for the
reṃainder of the text, the Global Business and Globalization at a Crossroads section ṃakes two
points: First, a basic understanding of the global econoṃy is necessary. Second, it is iṃportant
to critically exaṃine your own personal views and biases regarding globalization. Additionally,
we outline three leading debates concerning business and globalization/deglobalization. Finally,
we explore the broad iṃplications for savvy ṃanagers and students for the future of global
business in a less global world.
