‘. . . I found this to be an interesting and informative book, whose analysis should be of interest to all economics and international business researchers concerned with the problems of direct foreign investment in post-communist economies. It represents a contribution to the economics of transition literature, both from theoretical and empirical points of view.’
– Igor Filatotchev, The Economic Journal

‘Writing about such a powerful trend is both rewarding and risky. Klaus Meyer seems to have succeeded in managing these risks very well. . . . An in-depth analysis providing original insights into Central and Eastern Europe, while at the same time successfully challenging some of the theoretical foundations of the transnational firm, the book will be essential reading for both analysts and policymakers in the field of international business and transition economics.’
– Val Samonis, Transnational Corporations

This in-depth analysis of direct investment in transition economies provides not only original insights for economic policy in Central and Eastern Europe, but challenges some of the theoretical foundations of the multinational firm.
