From Neighborhoods to Nations

Just as we learn from, influence, and are influenced by others, our social interactions drive economic growth in cities, regions, and nations--determining where households live, how children learn, and what cities and firms produce. From Neighborhoods to Nations synthesizes the recent economics of social interactions for anyone seeking to understand the contributions of this important area. Integrating theory and empirics, Yannis Ioannides explores theoretical and empirical tools that economists use to investigate social interactions, and he shows how a familiarity with these tools is essential for interpreting findings.

Internationalization

What is Internationalization In the field of economics, internationalization, sometimes known as internationalization, refers to the process of extending the engagement of businesses in foreign markets. However, there is no universally accepted definition of internationalization. Internationalization is a crucial strategy not only for businesses that are looking to achieve horizontal integration on a global scale, but also for nations that are concerned with the long-term viability of their development in a variety of manufacturing and service sectors, particularly in the field of higher education. This is a very important context that requires internationalization in order to bridge the gap...

Multinational Firms' Location and the New Economic Geography

The choice of location for the production plants of multinational firms is an important issue, not least because this decision is accompanied by so many fears brought into public debate. This book analyses how foreign direct investors choose their locations, whilst exploring the forces which shape international economic geography. Although these two issues are, to some extent, inter-related, researchers have only recently acknowledged the similarity of economic geography and international business approaches to the empirical assessment of likely causes of the degree of spatial concentration observed in many modern industries. Giving insight into the direction that future research should take...
