| Abstract: | Using the eclectic paradigm as a model to analyze ancient international trade this article presents evidence suggesting that the first recorded multinational enterprises (MNEs) appeared in the old Assyrian kingdom shortly after 2000 B.C. Characteristics found in modern MNEs such as hierarchical organization, foreign employees, common stock ownership, resource and market-seeking behavior, were present in these ancient firms. |
