Aimed at senior undergraduate and post-graduate students following courses in international business and industrial relations, this book examines the labour market effects of multinational business. In reflecting the complexity and dynamism of developments in this area, it makes clear the need to underpin analysis of the labour market effects of multinational business with conceptual understanding of the theory of multinational enterprise.

This volume presents a world survey of multinational firms in the key parts of the service sector. The service sector has grown greatly in importance in recent years in many countries of the world. Many of the key parts of the service sector that are growing most rapidly are dominated by large multinational firms and this has important implications for the future shape of the world economy and for closer economic integration between countries.
