ADDITIONAL NOTES / INFORMATION:

Now that you’ve studied a company in its domestic environment, it’s now time to study it in the global environment. There are various ways to enter a global market, such as exporting, licensing, franchising, management contracts, manufacturing contracts, direct investment, strategic alliances, wholly owned subsidiaries, globalized operations, and global trade. Being international is more than just having an e-commerce website. There are so many other ways to work globally. What will fit your company the best?

For this week, you will identify the government regulations in a global environment of your choice. Please note that the global environment means a country of foreign origin to the company. For example, for U.S. Airways their domestic environment was the U.S. so their global environment would be England. For Guiness, their global environment would be the U.S. For Honda, their global environment would be Taiwan.

 

All Sources must be “Scholarly Article or Book”. A scholarly article or book generally is based on original research or experimentation. It is written by a researcher or expert in the field who is often affiliated with a college or university. Most scholarly writing includes footnotes and/or a bibliography and may include graphs or charts as illustrations as opposed to glossy pictures. In addition, articles that appear in scholarly journals or book that are published by academic presses, are subject to a peer-review process, which means that other "experts" or specialist in the field evaluate the quality and originality of the research as precondition of publication. The peer-review (as opposed to editorial review) process is also one thing that sets scholarly journals apart from journals that may otherwise seem quite similar. Journals such as Foreign Affairs, for instance, are generally not considers "scholarly journals," because many of the articles are solicited by the magazine's editors; in addition many of the articles are written by policy-makers who may be expressing an informed view, but whose article may not be based on original research.Scholarly research is typically published by a academic association or a university/academic press. In international relations and comparative politics, representative scholarly journals include Asian Survey, Comparative Politics, International Organization, International Security Studies, Journal of Comparative Politics, Journal of Democracy, and World Politics.
