Abstract: | There are new insights on why some companies export and other do not, why some companies fail to survive in export markets and some choose to produce overseas rather than export. This paper provides a synthesis and evaluation of the quickly growing body of literature on these subjects. It reviews both new theories of companies in an open economy context and the extensive microeconometric evidence base, which has now developed. |
