IB Conference 2009
30 –31 March 2009, University of Reading
We are delighted to announce our second two-day conference taking place in 2009.
Do new and emerging trends in IB require new theoretical and conceptual approaches?
Building around a series of public debates, we want to 'pick out' important emerging trends and issues to help define future directions for IB research, with particular emphasis on conceptual and theoretical issues.
Our aims are to consider whether accepted conceptual approaches are too complacent in dealing with new issues and to promote cross-disciplinary thinking by maximising dialogue between researchers from different perspectives.
Themes for the 2009 conference
1. Where do ownership advantages come from?
2. Does corporate social responsibility affect development?
3. Déjà vu all over again? What's really new about emerging markets?
- An economics/country perspective
- A management/MNE perspective
