Abstract

While most international business studies assume the authority of governments over multinational corporations (MNCs), this article adopts an interactional view to study the relationship between MNCs and political actors. Political behavior is understood as an interaction that is embedded in the relationships between MNCs and political decision makers. The question is: how do MNCs behave when they deal with political actors? A model including the factors of interactive behavior, the characteristics of the actors involved, and outcome was developed and used to analyze the political behavior of Swedish MNCs interacting with European Union (EU) political units.
