Please join us at SMS for a lively and timely Panel Discussion (Session#1827) on "Nationalism and Business"
Date: October 28, Wednesday, 9:45am-10:45am EST.
At the peak of globalization as an ideology and in practice, many scholars argued that the nation states had become irrelevant as MNEs cut through borders and operated as mini-nations. The transnational and metanational entities operated with global interdependence. Today, the winds have changed. What does this change mean for business? What are the implications for theory and practice?
