• Enhanced eText—Keeps students engaged in learning on
their own time,
while helping them achieve greater conceptual understanding of
course
material. The worked examples bring learning to life, and
algorithmic practice
allows students to apply the very concepts they are reading
about. Combining
resources that illuminate content with accessible self-
assessment, MyLab
with Enhanced eText provides students with a complete digital
learning
experience—all in one place.
• MediaShare for Business—Consisting of a curated
collection of business
videos tagged to learning outcomes and customizable, auto-
scored
assignments, MediaShare for Business helps students
understand why they
are learning key concepts and how they will apply those in their
careers.
Instructors can also assign favorite YouTube clips or original
content and
employ MediaShare’s powerful repository of tools to maximize
student
accountability and interactive learning, and provide
contextualized feedback
for students and teams who upload presentations, media, or
business plans.
• Writing Space—Better writers make great
learners who perform better in their courses.
Designed to help you develop and assess concept
mastery and critical thinking, the Writing Space
offers a single place to create, track, and grade
writing assignments, provide resources, and
exchange meaningful, personalized feedback with
students, quickly and easily. Thanks to auto-graded, assisted-
graded, and create-your-own assignments, you
decide your level of involvement in evaluating students’ work.
The auto-graded option allows you to assign
writing in large classes without having to grade essays by hand.
And because of integration with Turnitin®,
Writing Space can check students’ work for improper citation or
plagiarism.
• Branching, Decision-Making Simulations—Put your
students in the
role of manager as they make a series of decisions based on a
realistic
business challenge. The simulations change and branch based on
their
decisions, creating various scenario paths. At the end of each
simulation,
students receive a grade and a detailed report of the choices
they made
with the associated consequences included.

This textbook is one of the best-selling U.S. and worldwide
international business
(IB) textbooks. Widely used in both undergraduate and MBA
level courses, this text
has had authorized translations into Albanian, Chinese,
Macedonian, Russian,
Spanish, Korean, and Thai. Its first edition in 1976, according
to many professors,
defined the IB field. Its subsequent 14 editions have set the
global standard for
studying IB’s environments and operations. Students, faculty,
and managers have
praised our text for its compelling balance between rigorous,
authoritative theory
and meaningful practice within the context of a fresh, current
analysis of IB. The
elements of success that have driven this performance anchor
our efforts to make
this 16th edition the best version yet. We believe these efforts
result in a textbook that
provides you and your students the best possible understanding
of what is happen-
ing and is likely to happen in the world of business.
WHAT’S NEW TO THE SixTEENTH EdiTiON?
Ongoing trends and new development in the global business
environment called for
us to rethink and revise our interpretations of the environments
of operations of inter-
national business. Incorporating the corresponding changes
convinced the publishers
and the authors of the usefulness of publishing a 16th edition.
• Global Changes
IB, probably more so than any other subject, needs updating
because of the number
of and rapidity of global changes. The period since our last
edition was no exception.
Among the many changes we have referenced in our text are the
spread of mosquito-
borne epidemics (Zika, Ebola, dengue fever, and yellow fever);
changes in national
borders (e.g., Crimea now a part of Russia rather than the
Ukraine); the rise of ISIS
and its extended terrorism; the expanding scale and scope of
technology; oil technol-
ogy that has altered global supply locations and prices; the
evolving role of Bitcoins
for international currency exchange and investment
opportunities; the emergence
of disruptive technologies such 3-D printers, robotics, and
artificial intelligence; the
opening of U.S.–Cuban diplomatic exchanges; the advent of
negative interest-rate
policies in many Western markets; the termination of an
embargo on Iran; the near
breakup of certain countries (e.g., the United Kingdom and
Spain); the use of cor-
porate inversions to reduce taxes; ongoing ups and downs by
prominent emerging
markets; accelerating sophistication of communication systems;
decreasing degrees
of political and economic freedom throughout the world; greater
agreement that the
global climate is warming; the game changing implications of
social media; an almost
unprecedented refugee movement into Europe; and greater
support in many coun-
tries for more national sovereignty leading to the possible
breakup of regional eco-
nomic groups.
• Theories and Evidence to Explain IB and Globalization
It is now over 40 years since we started writing this text’s first
edition. We can remem-
ber when the Academy of International Business (AIB), the
main IB academic orga-
nization, attracted fewer than 40 attendees for its annual
meeting; now it routinely

PrefaCe xxiii
draws more than a thousand. Journals with an emphasis on
international business
were virtually nonexistent; thus the few people working directly
in the field had to
depend on discipline- and functional-based journals as outlets
for their research. We
all know how this has changed, which has, on the one hand,
helped us to under-
stand the global business environment in innovative, exciting
ways. Nevertheless, the
expanding scale of globalization and IB growth fuels such an
abundance of published
materials that academicians have had to specialize in narrower
areas to stay abreast
of relevant research. The growth has also created a challenge
for authors, such as us,
to keep sufficiently up to date on the breadth of research being
published on all the
functional and disciplinary topics we cover in an introductory
text. We are the first to
admit that we cannot, but, at the same time, when we have
revised for each new edi-
tion, we have discovered work that goes well beyond a slight
movement in existing
knowledge frontiers. It is gratifying for us to delve deeper into
emerging trends such
as those we described above, and thus we have added significant
new material to the
16th edition.
• Reduced Length
Over the years, we received sporadic objections to the length of
our text. And com-
plicating matters was the sense that as the text expanded,
students increasingly
preferred learning in shorter, focused bursts. Hence, we set a
goal of reducing the
text length by 200 pages without sacrificing content, coverage,
or quality; we more
than met our goal. We did this partially by shifting end notes to
an easily-accessed
online location, removing all cartoons because they did not
sufficiently enhance
students’ learning, and reducing tables of data that quickly
became obsolete. How-
ever, to our surprise, our biggest reduction by far was from
tightening our prose.
Completing chapters very quickly to reach a deadline for a two-
year cycle had
caused us to be much too wordy and to lead us to undue
redundancy among our
chapters. We quickly learned that reducing 200 pages was more
time consuming
than adding 200, but we feel that the text is now far more
engaging, interesting,
and readable.
• Improved In-Text Learning Aids
1. We aligned our objectives at each chapter’s opening with
major headings
within the chapters. This meant, in many cases, reorganizing the
materi-
als within the chapter. However, this should help students
master materials
more effectively and efficiently. Further, the change has
permitted the gen-
erators of the corresponding test bank to key questions better
with learning
objectives.
2. We already had marginal notes to refer back to previous
chapters. We expanded
those considerably and now refer to the specific pages where
students can find
earlier materials.
3. We dropped the “Geography and International Business”
feature. It had not
appeared in all the chapters, and we incorporated the coverage
into specific parts
of the chapters.
4. We dropped the “Summary” and “Key Terms” sections from
the end of our
chapters. Our reasoning is that our marginal notes cover all the
summary
points in greater detail and next to the material being covered.
All key terms
are shown in bold and included in the glossary, thus we
eliminated this
redundancy.
xxiv PrefaCe
5. We updated all of our cases. In addition, we replaced seven
cases with new ones
as follows:
Chapter 4: Economic Environments of the West: Problems,
Puzzles, and the
4th Industrial Revolution
Chapter 6: The Evolution of Taiwan’s International Trade
Chapter 7: Should U.S. Imports of Prescription Drugs from
Canada be
Widened?
Chapter 10: Venezuela’s Rapidly Changing Currency
Chapter 11: Tax Wars: Pfizer Versus the U.S. Government
Chapter 14: The Borderfree Option: Going Global—Simplified
Chapter 16: Organizing Global Operations: The “Gore Way”
• Improved Chapter Placements
Adopter feedback led to adjusting the sequence of chapters.
Specifically, we repo-
sitioned Chapter 11, Globalization and Society. Its new slot is
Chapter 5, thereby
effectively expanding our coverage of the environments of IB.
• Limiting Authors’ Names
Early on, we observed that students too often thought that they
needed to memorize
the names of all the authors who were cited. Thus, we have
made it a point to cite
only classic authors, such as Adam Smith. If students (or
instructors) want to know
the origin of materials, they can find this information in the end
note section.
Building on SucceSS
For the record, fewer than one percent of textbooks reach 16
editions. The longevity
of this text signifies its successful adaptation to the changing
domain of globalization
and IB. Indeed, sustainability has become a byword within the
global economy. Sus-
tainability, such as for a text, calls for building on what works
well and eliminating
what does not. Here are some highlights of the 16th edition
building blocks.
FOcuSiNg ON BOTH MAcrO ANd MicrO PErFOrMANcE
We have always, and steadfastly continue to present materials
from a broader per-
spective than company performance. First, although IB affects
nearly all business,
many students will be only tangentially involved. Second,
knowledge of IB supports
good citizenship, helping students interpret macro policies that
affect their personal
lives and career ambitions.
rESPONdiNg TO uPdATEd LiTErATurE
From the beginning, we have constantly assessed academic and
practitioner pub-
lications to stay abreast of relevant issues and events. We have
made no exception
for this edition. A review of our exhaustive endnotes shows a
citation mix of classic
treatises along with significant IB materials that have been
published since the pre-
ceding edition. Further, the companies cited in the “Company
Index and Trademarks”
section come from a variety of industries—large and small, U.S.
and non-U.S.—and
the list continues to be comprehensive and contemporary.
PrefaCe xxv
rELAyiNg PErSONAL ExPEriENcES
We regularly interact with IB stakeholders—managers, students,
professors, and
people affected by trade and other international events—through
our teaching of
degree-earning and executive students, attendance at academic
and civic meetings,
and foreign travel. For example, since the 15th text edition was
published, we have
traveled collectively to 25 countries, largely dealing with IB
managers in each. These
exchanges, taking place in every region of the world, provide
insights and anecdotes
that develop new materials and prioritize coverage via chapter
content and cases. We
believe no other textbook comes as close to effectively blending
a comprehensive
review of international business theory with exhaustive
attention to what happens in
the many parts of the world.
iNcOrPOrATiNg cASES
We maintain the inclusion of a case to open and close each
chapter. With few excep-
tions, we wrote the cases ourselves. When we did not, we
worked closely with the
authors to assure that the focus of each fit precisely with
chapters’ materials. These
cases span the globe and engage an extensive range of topics
from environmen-
tal, institutional, country, industry, company, and individual
perspectives. They also
include a wide range of company perspectives, from large
MNEs to small exporters,
from old-line manufacturers to emergent cyber businesses, and
from product manu-
facturers to service providers.
The opening cases set the stage for the chapters’ major issues,
highlighting themes
and ideas that are then covered throughout the chapter. These
also include questions
to guide students to real situations as they read the chapters.
The closing cases, also
anchored with questions, integrate the ideas and tools presented
in the chapter and
call upon the students to analyze issues and propose actions.
POiNT-cOuNTErPOiNT
To reinforce our strong applications orientation, we carry on a
feature in every chapter
that brings to life a major debate in contemporary IB and
globalization. We use a
point-counterpoint style to highlight opposing viewpoints that
managers and poli-
cymakers face when trying to make sense of vital issues. The
give and take between
two sides reinforces this textbook’s effort to link theory and
practice.
LOOkiNg TO THE FuTurE
As in previous editions, each chapter offers future scenarios
that are important to
managers, companies, or the world. The topic of each Looking
to the Future feature
alludes to the ideas discussed in the chapter in a way that
prompts students to engage
their imagination about the future of the world.
MAPS
Geographic literacy is essential in international business. Thus,
we have maintained
an Atlas, now located immediately after this Preface. Not only
does it show loca-
tions, it includes the almost equally important pronunciations of
the countries and
xxvi PrefaCe
territories that are included. In addition to the Atlas, we have an
abundance of maps
throughout that are visual presentations of materials, such as the
major locations of
a country’s export markets.
ENgAgiNg iN-TExT LEArNiNg AidS
To support students’ concentration on fundamental information
and lessons, we
introduce each new major term in bold. These terms are also
included in a Glos-
sary to help them recall definitions when they see these terms in
later chapters. We
use marginal notes to summarize discussions, and we include
marginal chapter
review notes to lead students back to earlier material that helps
them fathom later
discussions.

PiNPOiNTiNg Our rEviEWS
Although we have always depended on outside reviewers to give
us advice, the pro-
cess had several shortcomings in terms of our recent needs. The
most basic one is
that instructors were asked to comment on the entire book,
which led to responses
that were too general to help us sufficiently, such as “I’ve used
the book for sev-
eral years and am happy with it.” Or, reviewers had never
adopted the book, thus
the responses were obviously based on a mere scanning of
materials without any
specific substantive suggestions. There was a tendency to
propose additions with-
out eliminations that would compensate for them. In addition,
some of the recom-
mendations were made by users who to go into greater depth in
an area without
considering the breadth required for our book. Given that the
reviews came to us
anonymously, we could not speculate on the type of student
market about which
they were evaluating the text.
For our present edition, we received early on three anonymous
reviews,
thus we cannot acknowledge them by name. We then solicited
people who are
well-known scholars to review only one chapter that
corresponded to their major

expertise. We asked them to not only inform us of errors, but
also to suggest
important omissions. In addition, we needed their
recommendations on where we
could cut material in order to meet the demands of the market in
terms of length.
We cannot thank the following people enough for making
thorough, practical,
and insightful recommendations.

An Atlas
Satellite television transmission now makes it commonplace for
us to watch events as they
unfold in other countries. Transportation and communication
advances and government-
to-government accords have contributed to our increasing
dependence on foreign goods
and markets. As this dependence grows, updated maps are a
valuable tool. They can show
the locations of population, economic wealth, production, and
markets; portray certain
commonalities and differences among areas; and illustrate
barriers that might inhibit trade.
In spite of the usefulness of maps, a substantial number of
people worldwide have a poor
knowledge of how to interpret information on maps and even of
how to find the location of
events that affect their lives.
We urge you to use the following maps to build your awareness

Case The Globalized Business of sports
tennis pros come from every inhabited continent. For 2017 the
As-
sociation of Tennis Professionals (ATP) sanctioned 68
tournaments
in 33 countries. It also requires pros to compete in a certain
number
of events—and thus play in a number of countries—to maintain
international rankings.
Because no tennis pro can possibly play in every tournament,
organizers compete for top draws to fill stadium seats and land
lucrative TV contracts. Prizes can be extremely generous
(about
US $2.7 million for each of the 2016 Australian Open singles
champions).
Tournaments earn money through ticket sales, corporate spon-
sorship agreements, television contracts, and leasing of
advertising
space. The larger the stadium and TV audiences, the more
backers
and advertisers will pay to get their attention. Moreover,
international
broadcasts attract sponsorship from companies in various
industries
and countries.
From National to International Sports
Pastimes
Some countries have legally designated a national sport as a
means
of preserving traditions; others effectively have one. Map 1.1
shows
a sample of these. However, other sports have sometimes
replaced
national sports in popularity, such as cricket replacing field
hockey
as India’s most popular sport.
Baseball was popular only in its North American birthplace for
most of its history, but the International Baseball Federation
now
has over 100 member countries. As TV revenues flattened in
North
America, Major League Baseball (MLB) broadened its fan base
by
broadcasting games to international audiences, which also
showed
youngsters all over the world how the game was played. The
aver-
age MLB clubhouse is now a bastion of multilingual
camaraderie,
with players and coaches talking baseball in Spanish, Japanese,
Mandarin, and Korean as well as English.
The WIde World oF TelevISed
SPorTS
Not surprisingly, other professional sports have expanded their
global
TV coverage (and marketing programs). Most viewers of
Stanley Cup
hockey watch from outside North America. Fans can watch
NASCAR
races (National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing) and
NBA
games in most countries.
TV isn’t the only means by which sports organizations are seek-
ing foreign fan bases and players. The National Football League
(NFL) of the United States underwrites football programs in
Chinese
schools and plays some regular games in Europe. The NBA is
helping
to build basketball youth leagues in India.
Sports may be the world’s most globalized business.1 Fans
demand
to see the best, and “best” has become a global standard of com-
petition. (The opening photo shows a marathon in Berlin,
Germany
that had runners from over 130 nations and more than a million
spectators.) Satellite TV brings live events from just about
anywhere
in the world to fans just about anywhere else. This gives the key
sports-business participants—athletes, team owners, league
repre-
sentatives, and sports associations—broadened audience
exposure,
expanded fan bases, and augmented revenues.
National sports federations’ sponsorship of international com-
petitions are common, most notably the longstanding World Cup
in
football (soccer) and the Olympics. More national organizations
par-
ticipate in these events than there are United Nations (UN)
members,
and probably more people follow them than follow most of the
UN’s
activities. How do these international competitions relate to
busi-
ness? Cities and countries compete to host events to attract
tourists
and publicize their business opportunities. In turn, companies
pay
for marketing rights as sponsors. Finally, individual athletes,
such as
Michael Phelps in swimming, compete not only for medals, but
also
for lucrative contracts to endorse products.
While the Olympics and the World Cup participations have long
been global, the competitive location has been less so. This has
re-
cently changed with the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, the
2016
Olympics in Brazil, and the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
The INTerNaTIoNal Job MarkeT
The search for talent has become worldwide. Professional
basket-
ball scouts search remote areas of Nigeria for tall high-potential
youngsters. Baseball agents provide live-in training camps for
Do-
minican Republic teenagers in exchange for a percentage of
their
future professional signing bonuses. However, assembling talent
is
necessary but insufficient for making a sports business
successful.
Shrewd marketing and financial management are crucial too.
For
instance, Fútbol Barcelona, one of recent years’ best
professional
soccer teams, turned to young business graduates to help reduce
its
financial problems.
Most of today’s top-notch athletes are willing to follow the
money
anywhere. About two-thirds of the players in England’s
professional
soccer league (Premiership) are from other countries, which
helps
improve the caliber of play and increase the TV fan base outside
England.
how the aTP Courts Worldwide Support
You’ve probably noticed that individual sports professionals are
globe hoppers. Take tennis. No country boasts enough fans to
keep
players at home for year-round competition, yet today’s top-

MaP 1.1 examples of National Sports
Some 63 countries have either defined a national sport by law or
de facto have a national sport. Some national sports are shared
by more than one country, such as
cricket by England and seven of its former colonies. Some
others have been established to protect an historical heritage,
such as tejo in Colombia and pato in Argentina.
Note also that Canada has two designations, one for winter and
one for summer.

The Top-Notch Pro as Upscale brand
Many top players are effectively global brands, such as U.S.
tennis
pro Serena Williams and Portuguese soccer forward Cristiano
Ronal-
do. Because of their sports success and charisma, companies
within
and outside the sports industry pay them handsomely for
endorsing
clothing, equipment, and other products.
Promotion as Teamwork
A few teams, such as the New York Yankees in baseball, the
New
Zealand All Blacks in rugby, and Manchester United (Man U) in
soc-
cer also have enough brand-name cachet to be global brands for
selling clothing and other items. Just about every team can get
something for the rights to use its logo, while some have
enough
name recognition to support global chains of retail outlets.
Simi-
larly, companies both sponsor and seek endorsements from
well-
known teams, such as the placement of “Fly Emirates” on Real
Madrid’s soccer jerseys.
Still others pay for naming rights to arenas and other venues.
Of course, teams themselves can be attractive international
invest-
ments. For instance, U.S. investors bought the Liverpool
Football Club
of the United Kingdom.
The Upsides and downsides of Globalized
Sports
What does all this mean to a sports fan? Now that pro sports
have
become a global phenomenon, fans can enjoy a greater variety—
and a higher level of competition—than any former generation.
That’s the upside, but people don’t always take easily to another
country’s sport. Despite many efforts, cricket, although popular
in
countries that were British colonies for centuries, is not popular
elsewhere. Nor has American football gained much popularity
out-
side the United States. One possible reason is that rules for
cricket
and American football are so complicated. However, basketball
and
soccer have traveled to new markets more readily because they
are
easier to understand and require little specialized equipment.
Further, there is disagreement about the economic effect of suc-
cessfully winning a bid to host big international competitions
such as
the World Cup and Olympics. On the one hand, they help spur
tour-
ism, foreign investment, infrastructure construction, and
improve-
ment of blighted areas that will speed future economic growth.
On
the other hand, in light of threats from global terrorism, the cost
of
security has skyrocketed, while hosts may have to spend on
stadi-
ums and facilities that have no use afterward. Many
competitions

And because of integration with Turnitin®, Writing Space can check students’ work for improper citation or plagiarism. • Branching, Decision-Making Simulations—Put your students in the role of manager as they make a series of decisions based on a realistic business challenge. The simulations change and branch based on their decisions, creating various scenario paths. At the end of each simulation, students receive a grade and a detailed report of the choices they made with the associated consequences included.

  • 43. (IB) textbooks. Widely used in both undergraduate and MBA level courses, this text has had authorized translations into Albanian, Chinese, Macedonian, Russian, Spanish, Korean, and Thai. Its first edition in 1976, according to many professors, defined the IB field. Its subsequent 14 editions have set the global standard for studying IB’s environments and operations. Students, faculty, and managers have praised our text for its compelling balance between rigorous, authoritative theory and meaningful practice within the context of a fresh, current analysis of IB. The elements of success that have driven this performance anchor our efforts to make this 16th edition the best version yet. We believe these efforts result in a textbook that provides you and your students the best possible understanding of what is happen- ing and is likely to happen in the world of business. WHAT’S NEW TO THE SixTEENTH EdiTiON? Ongoing trends and new development in the global business environment called for
  • 44. us to rethink and revise our interpretations of the environments of operations of inter- national business. Incorporating the corresponding changes convinced the publishers and the authors of the usefulness of publishing a 16th edition. • Global Changes IB, probably more so than any other subject, needs updating because of the number of and rapidity of global changes. The period since our last edition was no exception. Among the many changes we have referenced in our text are the spread of mosquito- borne epidemics (Zika, Ebola, dengue fever, and yellow fever); changes in national borders (e.g., Crimea now a part of Russia rather than the Ukraine); the rise of ISIS and its extended terrorism; the expanding scale and scope of technology; oil technol- ogy that has altered global supply locations and prices; the evolving role of Bitcoins for international currency exchange and investment opportunities; the emergence of disruptive technologies such 3-D printers, robotics, and artificial intelligence; the
  • 45. opening of U.S.–Cuban diplomatic exchanges; the advent of negative interest-rate policies in many Western markets; the termination of an embargo on Iran; the near breakup of certain countries (e.g., the United Kingdom and Spain); the use of cor- porate inversions to reduce taxes; ongoing ups and downs by prominent emerging markets; accelerating sophistication of communication systems; decreasing degrees of political and economic freedom throughout the world; greater agreement that the global climate is warming; the game changing implications of social media; an almost unprecedented refugee movement into Europe; and greater support in many coun- tries for more national sovereignty leading to the possible breakup of regional eco- nomic groups. • Theories and Evidence to Explain IB and Globalization It is now over 40 years since we started writing this text’s first edition. We can remem- ber when the Academy of International Business (AIB), the main IB academic orga-
  • 46. nization, attracted fewer than 40 attendees for its annual meeting; now it routinely Preface xxii PrefaCe xxiii draws more than a thousand. Journals with an emphasis on international business were virtually nonexistent; thus the few people working directly in the field had to depend on discipline- and functional-based journals as outlets for their research. We all know how this has changed, which has, on the one hand, helped us to under- stand the global business environment in innovative, exciting ways. Nevertheless, the expanding scale of globalization and IB growth fuels such an abundance of published materials that academicians have had to specialize in narrower areas to stay abreast
  • 47. of relevant research. The growth has also created a challenge for authors, such as us, to keep sufficiently up to date on the breadth of research being published on all the functional and disciplinary topics we cover in an introductory text. We are the first to admit that we cannot, but, at the same time, when we have revised for each new edi- tion, we have discovered work that goes well beyond a slight movement in existing knowledge frontiers. It is gratifying for us to delve deeper into emerging trends such as those we described above, and thus we have added significant new material to the 16th edition. • Reduced Length Over the years, we received sporadic objections to the length of our text. And com- plicating matters was the sense that as the text expanded, students increasingly preferred learning in shorter, focused bursts. Hence, we set a goal of reducing the text length by 200 pages without sacrificing content, coverage, or quality; we more
  • 48. than met our goal. We did this partially by shifting end notes to an easily-accessed online location, removing all cartoons because they did not sufficiently enhance students’ learning, and reducing tables of data that quickly became obsolete. How- ever, to our surprise, our biggest reduction by far was from tightening our prose. Completing chapters very quickly to reach a deadline for a two- year cycle had caused us to be much too wordy and to lead us to undue redundancy among our chapters. We quickly learned that reducing 200 pages was more time consuming than adding 200, but we feel that the text is now far more engaging, interesting, and readable. • Improved In-Text Learning Aids 1. We aligned our objectives at each chapter’s opening with major headings within the chapters. This meant, in many cases, reorganizing the materi- als within the chapter. However, this should help students
  • 49. master materials more effectively and efficiently. Further, the change has permitted the gen- erators of the corresponding test bank to key questions better with learning objectives. 2. We already had marginal notes to refer back to previous chapters. We expanded those considerably and now refer to the specific pages where students can find earlier materials. 3. We dropped the “Geography and International Business” feature. It had not appeared in all the chapters, and we incorporated the coverage into specific parts of the chapters. 4. We dropped the “Summary” and “Key Terms” sections from the end of our chapters. Our reasoning is that our marginal notes cover all the summary points in greater detail and next to the material being covered. All key terms
  • 50. are shown in bold and included in the glossary, thus we eliminated this redundancy. xxiv PrefaCe 5. We updated all of our cases. In addition, we replaced seven cases with new ones as follows: Chapter 4: Economic Environments of the West: Problems, Puzzles, and the 4th Industrial Revolution Chapter 6: The Evolution of Taiwan’s International Trade Chapter 7: Should U.S. Imports of Prescription Drugs from Canada be Widened? Chapter 10: Venezuela’s Rapidly Changing Currency Chapter 11: Tax Wars: Pfizer Versus the U.S. Government Chapter 14: The Borderfree Option: Going Global—Simplified Chapter 16: Organizing Global Operations: The “Gore Way” • Improved Chapter Placements
  • 51. Adopter feedback led to adjusting the sequence of chapters. Specifically, we repo- sitioned Chapter 11, Globalization and Society. Its new slot is Chapter 5, thereby effectively expanding our coverage of the environments of IB. • Limiting Authors’ Names Early on, we observed that students too often thought that they needed to memorize the names of all the authors who were cited. Thus, we have made it a point to cite only classic authors, such as Adam Smith. If students (or instructors) want to know the origin of materials, they can find this information in the end note section. Building on SucceSS For the record, fewer than one percent of textbooks reach 16 editions. The longevity of this text signifies its successful adaptation to the changing domain of globalization and IB. Indeed, sustainability has become a byword within the global economy. Sus- tainability, such as for a text, calls for building on what works well and eliminating
  • 52. what does not. Here are some highlights of the 16th edition building blocks. FOcuSiNg ON BOTH MAcrO ANd MicrO PErFOrMANcE We have always, and steadfastly continue to present materials from a broader per- spective than company performance. First, although IB affects nearly all business, many students will be only tangentially involved. Second, knowledge of IB supports good citizenship, helping students interpret macro policies that affect their personal lives and career ambitions. rESPONdiNg TO uPdATEd LiTErATurE From the beginning, we have constantly assessed academic and practitioner pub- lications to stay abreast of relevant issues and events. We have made no exception for this edition. A review of our exhaustive endnotes shows a citation mix of classic treatises along with significant IB materials that have been published since the pre- ceding edition. Further, the companies cited in the “Company Index and Trademarks”
  • 53. section come from a variety of industries—large and small, U.S. and non-U.S.—and the list continues to be comprehensive and contemporary. PrefaCe xxv rELAyiNg PErSONAL ExPEriENcES We regularly interact with IB stakeholders—managers, students, professors, and people affected by trade and other international events—through our teaching of degree-earning and executive students, attendance at academic and civic meetings, and foreign travel. For example, since the 15th text edition was published, we have traveled collectively to 25 countries, largely dealing with IB managers in each. These exchanges, taking place in every region of the world, provide insights and anecdotes that develop new materials and prioritize coverage via chapter content and cases. We believe no other textbook comes as close to effectively blending a comprehensive
  • 54. review of international business theory with exhaustive attention to what happens in the many parts of the world. iNcOrPOrATiNg cASES We maintain the inclusion of a case to open and close each chapter. With few excep- tions, we wrote the cases ourselves. When we did not, we worked closely with the authors to assure that the focus of each fit precisely with chapters’ materials. These cases span the globe and engage an extensive range of topics from environmen- tal, institutional, country, industry, company, and individual perspectives. They also include a wide range of company perspectives, from large MNEs to small exporters, from old-line manufacturers to emergent cyber businesses, and from product manu- facturers to service providers. The opening cases set the stage for the chapters’ major issues, highlighting themes and ideas that are then covered throughout the chapter. These also include questions
  • 55. to guide students to real situations as they read the chapters. The closing cases, also anchored with questions, integrate the ideas and tools presented in the chapter and call upon the students to analyze issues and propose actions. POiNT-cOuNTErPOiNT To reinforce our strong applications orientation, we carry on a feature in every chapter that brings to life a major debate in contemporary IB and globalization. We use a point-counterpoint style to highlight opposing viewpoints that managers and poli- cymakers face when trying to make sense of vital issues. The give and take between two sides reinforces this textbook’s effort to link theory and practice. LOOkiNg TO THE FuTurE As in previous editions, each chapter offers future scenarios that are important to managers, companies, or the world. The topic of each Looking to the Future feature alludes to the ideas discussed in the chapter in a way that prompts students to engage
  • 56. their imagination about the future of the world. MAPS Geographic literacy is essential in international business. Thus, we have maintained an Atlas, now located immediately after this Preface. Not only does it show loca- tions, it includes the almost equally important pronunciations of the countries and xxvi PrefaCe territories that are included. In addition to the Atlas, we have an abundance of maps throughout that are visual presentations of materials, such as the major locations of a country’s export markets. ENgAgiNg iN-TExT LEArNiNg AidS To support students’ concentration on fundamental information and lessons, we introduce each new major term in bold. These terms are also included in a Glos-
  • 57. sary to help them recall definitions when they see these terms in later chapters. We use marginal notes to summarize discussions, and we include marginal chapter review notes to lead students back to earlier material that helps them fathom later discussions. iNSTrucTOr SuPPLEMENTS Instructors can access the following downloadable supplemental resources by sign- ing into the Instructor Resource Center at www.pearsonhighered.com/educator. • Instructor’s Manual • Test Item File and TestGen® Computerized Test Bank— includes multiple choice, true/false, short answer, and essay questions that are tagged to Learning Objectives, Skill, Difficulty, Learning Outcomes, and AACSB Learning Standards to help measure whether students are grasping the course content that aligns with AACSB guidelines.

AckNOWLEdgMENTS PiNPOiNTiNg Our rEviEWS Although we have always depended on outside reviewers to give us advice, the pro- cess had several shortcomings in terms of our recent needs. The most basic one is that instructors were asked to comment on the entire book, which led to responses that were too general to help us sufficiently, such as “I’ve used the book for sev- eral years and am happy with it.” Or, reviewers had never adopted the book, thus
  • 59. the responses were obviously based on a mere scanning of materials without any specific substantive suggestions. There was a tendency to propose additions with- out eliminations that would compensate for them. In addition, some of the recom- mendations were made by users who to go into greater depth in an area without considering the breadth required for our book. Given that the reviews came to us anonymously, we could not speculate on the type of student market about which they were evaluating the text. For our present edition, we received early on three anonymous reviews, thus we cannot acknowledge them by name. We then solicited people who are well-known scholars to review only one chapter that corresponded to their major http://www.pearsonhighered.com/educator PrefaCe xxvii

In addition, we needed their recommendations on where we could cut material in order to meet the demands of the market in terms of length.

  • 72. An Atlas Satellite television transmission now makes it commonplace for us to watch events as they unfold in other countries. Transportation and communication advances and government- to-government accords have contributed to our increasing dependence on foreign goods and markets. As this dependence grows, updated maps are a valuable tool. They can show the locations of population, economic wealth, production, and markets; portray certain commonalities and differences among areas; and illustrate barriers that might inhibit trade. In spite of the usefulness of maps, a substantial number of people worldwide have a poor knowledge of how to interpret information on maps and even of how to find the location of events that affect their lives. We urge you to use the following maps to build your awareness of geography. Map 1 World View 2000, page xxxiii Map 2 Africa, page xxxiv

For 2017 the As- sociation of Tennis Professionals (ATP) sanctioned 68 tournaments in 33 countries. It also requires pros to compete in a certain number of events—and thus play in a number of countries—to maintain international rankings. Because no tennis pro can possibly play in every tournament, organizers compete for top draws to fill stadium seats and land lucrative TV contracts. Prizes can be extremely generous (about US $2.7 million for each of the 2016 Australian Open singles champions).
  • 293. Tournaments earn money through ticket sales, corporate spon- sorship agreements, television contracts, and leasing of advertising space. The larger the stadium and TV audiences, the more backers and advertisers will pay to get their attention. Moreover, international broadcasts attract sponsorship from companies in various industries and countries. From National to International Sports Pastimes Some countries have legally designated a national sport as a means of preserving traditions; others effectively have one. Map 1.1 shows a sample of these. However, other sports have sometimes replaced national sports in popularity, such as cricket replacing field hockey as India’s most popular sport. Baseball was popular only in its North American birthplace for
  • 294. most of its history, but the International Baseball Federation now has over 100 member countries. As TV revenues flattened in North America, Major League Baseball (MLB) broadened its fan base by broadcasting games to international audiences, which also showed youngsters all over the world how the game was played. The aver- age MLB clubhouse is now a bastion of multilingual camaraderie, with players and coaches talking baseball in Spanish, Japanese, Mandarin, and Korean as well as English. The WIde World oF TelevISed SPorTS Not surprisingly, other professional sports have expanded their global TV coverage (and marketing programs). Most viewers of Stanley Cup hockey watch from outside North America. Fans can watch NASCAR races (National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing) and
  • 295. NBA games in most countries. TV isn’t the only means by which sports organizations are seek- ing foreign fan bases and players. The National Football League (NFL) of the United States underwrites football programs in Chinese schools and plays some regular games in Europe. The NBA is helping to build basketball youth leagues in India. Sports may be the world’s most globalized business.1 Fans demand to see the best, and “best” has become a global standard of com- petition. (The opening photo shows a marathon in Berlin, Germany that had runners from over 130 nations and more than a million spectators.) Satellite TV brings live events from just about anywhere in the world to fans just about anywhere else. This gives the key sports-business participants—athletes, team owners, league repre- sentatives, and sports associations—broadened audience exposure, expanded fan bases, and augmented revenues.
  • 296. National sports federations’ sponsorship of international com- petitions are common, most notably the longstanding World Cup in football (soccer) and the Olympics. More national organizations par- ticipate in these events than there are United Nations (UN) members, and probably more people follow them than follow most of the UN’s activities. How do these international competitions relate to busi- ness? Cities and countries compete to host events to attract tourists and publicize their business opportunities. In turn, companies pay for marketing rights as sponsors. Finally, individual athletes, such as Michael Phelps in swimming, compete not only for medals, but also for lucrative contracts to endorse products. While the Olympics and the World Cup participations have long been global, the competitive location has been less so. This has re-

Professional basket- ball scouts search remote areas of Nigeria for tall high-potential youngsters. Baseball agents provide live-in training camps for Do- minican Republic teenagers in exchange for a percentage of their future professional signing bonuses. However, assembling talent is necessary but insufficient for making a sports business successful. Shrewd marketing and financial management are crucial too. For instance, Fútbol Barcelona, one of recent years’ best professional soccer teams, turned to young business graduates to help reduce its financial problems.
  • 298. Most of today’s top-notch athletes are willing to follow the money anywhere. About two-thirds of the players in England’s professional soccer league (Premiership) are from other countries, which helps improve the caliber of play and increase the TV fan base outside England. how the aTP Courts Worldwide Support You’ve probably noticed that individual sports professionals are globe hoppers.

Some national sports are shared by more than one country, such as cricket by England and seven of its former colonies. Some others have been established to protect an historical heritage, such as tejo in Colombia and pato in Argentina. Note also that Canada has two designations, one for winter and one for summer.

  • 301. The Top-Notch Pro as Upscale brand Many top players are effectively global brands, such as U.S. tennis pro Serena Williams and Portuguese soccer forward Cristiano Ronal- do. Because of their sports success and charisma, companies within and outside the sports industry pay them handsomely for endorsing clothing, equipment, and other products. Promotion as Teamwork A few teams, such as the New York Yankees in baseball, the New Zealand All Blacks in rugby, and Manchester United (Man U) in soc- cer also have enough brand-name cachet to be global brands for selling clothing and other items. Just about every team can get something for the rights to use its logo, while some have enough name recognition to support global chains of retail outlets. Simi- larly, companies both sponsor and seek endorsements from well-

Of course, teams themselves can be attractive international invest- ments. For instance, U.S. investors bought the Liverpool Football Club of the United Kingdom. The Upsides and downsides of Globalized Sports What does all this mean to a sports fan? Now that pro sports have become a global phenomenon, fans can enjoy a greater variety— and a higher level of competition—than any former generation. That’s the upside, but people don’t always take easily to another country’s sport. Despite many efforts, cricket, although popular in countries that were British colonies for centuries, is not popular elsewhere. Nor has American football gained much popularity out- side the United States. One possible reason is that rules for cricket and American football are so complicated. However, basketball

Further, there is disagreement about the economic effect of suc- cessfully winning a bid to host big international competitions such as the World Cup and Olympics. On the one hand, they help spur tour- ism, foreign investment, infrastructure construction, and improve- ment of blighted areas that will speed future economic growth. On the other hand, in light of threats from global terrorism, the cost of security has skyrocketed, while hosts may have to spend on stadi- ums and facilities that have no use afterward.
