• Export propensity and intensity of subsidiaries in emerging economies (2008, background): “As most MNEs are strongest in their home region ( Rugman & Verbeke, 2003 ), operations in distant markets have a more peripheral nature, and may operate from regional hubs.”
• A perspective on multinational enterprises and climate change: Learning from “an inconvenient truth”?

• The theory and practice of regional strategy: a response to Osegowitsch and Sammartino (2008, background): “The necessary extension of mainstream international business theory ( Rugman & Verbeke, 2003 ) has three main components.”
