La firme multinationale dans la nouvelle économie industrielle internationale

  • Rainelli, Michel

Abstract

The aim of the paper is to survey two kinds of explanation for multinational firms. The first is developed in the context of the "old" industrial economics, based on entry barriers and transaction costs, the second in the frame of the "new" industrial economics, based on strategic comportment. It seems that the two approaches fail to explain empirical facts.
