Such “non-market risks” include political as well as natural disasters. Taking an historical perspective, the authors interrogate several key research questions, including: What impact did political risk and nationalism have on global business? Have wars and other conficts caused by national interests and identities retarded or even reversed the trend towards globalization? When faced with political and geopolitical threats such as war, occupation, expropriation, economic blockade and sanctions, requisition, persecution, or boycott, how did multinational enterprises (MNEs) and other international economic actors manage (or fail) to overcome the situation they found themselves in? How did the response of economic entities like MNEs transform global business, or change political risks and the sovereign state system? Fundamentally, the chapter shows how the examination of such phenomena provides key insights into business history and international business research. 2021-02-08T13:20:45Z 2021-02-08T13:20:45Z 2017 chapter https://library.oapen.org/handle/20.500.12657/46595 eng application/pdf Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International 9781315277813_oachapter31.pdf Taylor & Francis The Routledge Companion to the Makers of Global Business Routledge 7b3c7b10-5b1e-40b3-860e-c6dd5197f0bb fba7cf67-2a5c-4398-99bd-fb5af85c4e82 1427b46a-0987-49ac-ab6f-6ebd060604ed Routledge 18 Kyoto University open access
