Review Multinationals and Economic Development: An Integration of Competing Theories (International Business Series) / Routledge:Multinationals dominate world trade and direct investment. However, less developed countries have often regarded this power as detrimental to their fragile, growing economies and have pursued a policy of regulation. Modern economic theories of multinationals need to evaluate the effects of such policies. This book offers an alternative to restrictive policies, arguing that multinationals are best treated in the same way as local private firms. By integrating new theories of multinational enterprise and of development economics, the author presents a critical analysis of the various competing policy options and their consequences. Using empirical evidence from Asia, Africa and Latin America and covering such areas as imports, exports, resource utilization and new technology, the author asserts that a classical, neutralist policy towards MNCs would be the most effective way of stimulating growing economies. The book should interest those looking at less developed countries and those studying business and applied economics.

Review The Development Of The National Economy: The United States From The Civil War Through The 1890s (Early American Economic Thought, 3) / Pickering & Chatto Publishers:This collection brings together a comprehensive selection of documents from the history of US and Canadian economic thought from the 17th century through to 1900. Part III centres on the Civil War to 1900. These texts consider issues such as the national debt and supply of money, early efforts to present systematised text-book statements of political economy, protection versus free trade, railroad regulation, poverty in relation to institutions, competition versus monopoly, social structure in relation to economic policy, monetary theory, the socio-economic role of religion, the "labour question" and the organisation of labour, and government regulation versus ownership. Writings address the controversy over the Single Tax, as well as several other efforts at social reform, and applied policy topics such as taxation, tariffs, antitrust, unionisation and strikes, immigration, imperialism. Writings relate issues such as the appropriate scope and methodology of economics as an increasingly academic discipline, the organisation of the American Economic Association, and early attempts to write the history of economic thought. Also included are ever more esoteric but important issues of theory such as income distribution, monetary standards, and questions of evolutionary and dynamic economics.

Review Manual for the Practice of U. S. International Trade Law / Springer:This manual is a guide to the most important legal procedures that control imports. It is likely to be of most use to practitioners who are not yet experts in the field, corporate counsel in both domestic and foreign companies whose products are sold across national borders, and students learning about these complicated regulatory laws. Each chapter is written by experienced counsel in Washington, DC - some of whom have inside experience from working in the government agencies that administer the laws they are writing about. The authors have incorporated practical advice - "practice comments" - in their description of how these laws work. It is the intention of both the authors and editors to supplement the manual with updated material from time to time, which will be available online.
