Routledge Going Multinational: The Korean Experience Book

Explore the dramatic shift in Korean economic strategy with Going Multinational: The Korean Experience of Direct Investment. Part of the Routledge Studies in Global Competition series, this book examines the wave of foreign direct investment that began in the early 1990s. As Korean firms expanded into advanced countries, their quest for globalization tested the traditional Korean economic model to its limits. This academic collection provides a deep look at how the 1997 crisis led to new policies and a significant surge in inward investment. By using empirical tests and detailed case studies, the text analyzes how Korean groups have invested globally and the impact of these moves on the international stage. It is an essential resource for those studying international business, global competition, and the evolution of the Korean economy.
