 この講義は英語で行います。
 In the past, for many Japanese enterprises, their international activities were rather limited and their relationship with foreign countries have been centered on export and import. But globalization has developed rapidly and widely, and now it is quite common to see foreign direct investments, global marketing and sales, global production system, research and development and so on in the activities of enterprises of developed countries, including Japan and developing countries. Many enterprises are taking advantage of the situation. They operate more globally than before and succeed in reaping profits. At the same time, however, they face new challenges and need to address various issues. This course deals with global environment surrounding multinational enterprises (“MNE”s) and their operations, their background and history and their challenges.
