Because of the difficulties that expatriates face, some firms
have begun a policy of “inpatriation” (a concept discussed
further in the Debate section of chapter 13), whereby they
relocate foreigners to the host country, with the expectation that
after a period of time, they will replace expatriates. While this
provides the MNE with a source of workers who do not face
cultural obstacles, some significant problems remain. First,
inpatriates, who are paid the going rate in the MNE’s home
country, are often disappointed or upset when they go to the
host country, where salaries are much lower. Second, many
inpatriates are ineffective because of their ambiguous position.
While the headquarters views inpatriates as “us” because of
their time in the home country, other HCNs also view them as
“us” because of their common ethnicity.
1.Given the pros and cons of expatriation and inpatriation,
which do you feel is more effective for MNEs? Would certain
situation call for one strategy over another? What could an
MNE do to alleviate some of the difficulties of inpatriation?
2.
MNEs operate in multiple locations, negotiating through a
complicated web of formal and informal institutions that are
different from country to country. An MNE is successful, in
part, because of its ability to work within a complex network of
laws and values to create a global, cross-cultural entity. The
question is could labor unions do the same? While union
presence is strong in some countries, it is nearly absent in
others, so that workers in those countries have relative little
protection from potentially unfair actions. What is the
feasibility of establishing a global (or semiglobal) labor union
to cover these countries? How would they overcome
institutional obstacles presented by governments and by MNEs?
What would be the pros and cons of such a movement?
