Jean-Claude Usunier: International and Cross-Cultural Management Research

1998, London: Sage. 195 pages.

The increasingly global environment has led to both a greater practical need for international management research and a questioning of whether management science follows universal rules. International and Cross-Cultural Management Research addresses the particular characteristics of international management research, including the important role of culture. A key introduction provides a comprehensive overview of the major issues and different approaches to international management research. The book offers a typology of research designs in international management, and shows the role culture plays in such designs. Also discussed are the theories and paradigms that serve international and cross-cultural management research. Throughout, the author provides numerous illustrative examples from key empirical studies. In so doing, International and Cross-Cultural Management Research offers an introduction to the major principles and practices. It will be a guide for students and others wishing to undertake researc h in business and management with an international and/or cross-cultural dimension.
