Knowledge Acquisition in International Joint Ventures

This book provides a comprehensive yet concise review of the literature on knowledge acquisition from foreign parents in International Joint Ventures (IJVs). Findings from a survey and a multiple-case study are critically compared to each other and to findings of previous studies, followed by practical implications for researchers, managers, and public policy makers. Scholarly written and novel in concept, the volume is rich in empirical evidence contextualized by a holistic examination of the foreign direct investment (FDI) environment in Vietnam. This book is highly recommended to business and management academic readers and practitioners, particularly those interested in learning within an emerging economy context.
