Leading scholars are given the space to explore their subject in provocative ways, and map out the potential directions of travel.

The book especially covers a range of thought-provoking ideas on key subjects, from externalisation theory to emerging market economies to societal crises and modern slavery.This Research Agenda also revisits the relevance of core theories; examines the changing roles of nation states and multinationals as well as power relations and ideologies; and discusses new phenomena in international business and management (IB/M).

Academics in neighbouring subfields including social geography, political science and economic sociology will also find beneficial insights.
