Fruehauf Professor of Business Administration and Professor of Corporate Strategy and International Business), to document how companies across the world were working successfully to provide products and services and improve the living conditions of the poorest of the poor.

IB education & research became institutionlized in leading US business schools in the 1960s. One of the most influential business schools & one of the first to develop an IB department was Indiana Univ. (IU). The leadership of IU in the developments in the field of IB is assessed; the influence of IU on major associated fields of research & teaching (finance, marketing, & management) is assessed; recent research themes in these fields are explored. The book develops several overlapping themes: the process of internatinalization within business schools, the experience as a leader, the extent to which IB has been effectively infused in key functional areas of traditional business education, the current state of knowledge about IB research, & new issues in IB research. The book extends the key theme about the historical development of IB & the intn'l aspects of research & teaching in marketing & finance are considered. Several papers present state-of-the-art literature reviews & extensions of current research issues in intn'l management strategy. Issues in global, regional & sub-national strategy are considered & serve to place the earlier historical discussion of IB in context.

While they focus on different topics and different kinds of explanations, their conclusions—that there is a universal social science tradition as well as distinctive national variants of it—are similar.
