The global strategy of emerging multinationals from China
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors argue that these three relatively unique aspects of emerging multinational enterprises from China will have significant ramifications for future theory building and empirical efforts of the global strategy research community, and argue that the role played by home country governments of MNEs as an institutional force, the challenge of going abroad in the absence of significantly superior technological and managerial resources, and the rapid adoption of (often high-profile) acquisitions as a primary mode of entry.
