Abstract: | The establishment of trading blocs is a way of increasing the "size of the country" and the preference for local production. The authors focus first on the theoretical implications on firms' strategies of the increasing move towards regional economic integration in Europe and North America. Then they examine the impact regional integration in North America has had on the foreign investment strategies of firms by their country of origin. |
