In Their Own Words

Extended, historically grounded case studies from Nigeria, Ghana, Uganda, Vietnam, Nunavik, Canada, and Guyana are intended to encourage reflection about how international businesses can enhance the capital--financial, productive, natural, human, and social--of their host countries, as a matter of fairness in exchange (commutative justice). Rather than challenging students with quandaries, the cases aim to sensitize students to how businesses might engage in 'asset-building' rather than 'cost-minimization' as a basic business strategy.
