• Global investments and regional development trajectories: the missing links (2016, background): “This global regionalism is also characterized by the slicing up and recombination of GVCs in which establishments and groups of activities are ‘unbundled’ (Baldwin, 2011) primarily across groups of neighbouring economic systems (e.g., Guy, 2009, 2015; Rugman, 2005).”
• Applying and advancing internalization theory: The multinational enterprise in the twenty-first century (2019, unknown): “…in the MNE (Rugman & Verbeke, 2001; Asmussen, Pedersen & Dhanaraj, 2009), and—perhaps most importantly— the prevalence of regional rather than global strategies by MNEs as a means to capture value from their FSAs (Rugman & Verbeke, 2004; Rugman, 2005; Asmussen, 2009; Rugman, Verbeke & Yuan, 2011).”
• Globalisation: Countries, Cities and Multinationals (2009, background): “This is because multinational firms, rather than being completely global, are actually overwhelmingly regional, in the sense that their sales, investments and R&D are dominated by the same ‘super-regions’ or trade blocs in which their parent companies are located (Rugman 2000, 2005).”
• A perspective on multinational enterprises and climate change: Learning from “an inconvenient truth”? (2008, background): “sourcing of raw materials, capital and labor (Rugman & Verbeke, 2004; Rugman, 2005).”
• Mapping world cultures: Cluster formation, sources and implications (2013, background): “As managers are exposed to similar influences, from attending an MBA program to serving in the same MNE, they presumably embrace values common to Western capitalism (Ralston et al., 1997), such as individualism, and concern for individual rights (Peterson & Smith, 2008).”
• Harmonization in CSR Reporting (2011, methodology): “For this last variable, we used data from Rugman (2005); missing values were obtained by taking data from corporate annual reports.”
• Regional diversification and firm performance (2008, background): “For example, in his landmark study The Regional Multinationals, Rugman (2005) finds that most of the world’s 500 largest MNEs, which account for more than 90% of the world stock of foreign direct investment (FDI) and over half of world trade, are regional rather than global.”
• Zoom in, zoom out: Geographic scale and multinational activity (2018, unknown): “In the second stream, researchers zoom out, coining the term ‘‘regionalization’’ (Rugman & Verbeke, 2004; Rugman 2005) to argue that MNEs use supranational regions, like the European Union (EU) and NAFTA, rather than individual countries to define the primary geographic scope of their businesses…”
• FDI location choice of Chinese multinationals in East and Southeast Asia: Traditional economic factors and institutional perspective (2012, background): “First, theory suggests that internationalization of firms is an incremental process achieved mainly through regional expansion rather than global expansion (Johanson & Vahlne, 1977), and most existing MNEs are regional rather than global players (Qian, Li, Li, & Qian, 2008; Rugman, 2005).”
• The regional nature of Japanese multinational business (2008, methodology): “In summary, it is highly unusual to find global or bi-regional MNEs, such as Toyota, Honda and Sony, that have managed to decouple from the home region base of their FSAs or to transfer some elements of them (organisational practices, keiretsu structures, etc.) to other regions of the triad.”
• Accounting for human rights: The challenge of globalization and foreign investment agreements (2011, background): “The project was initially established in 1988 between the government of Chad and 11 A weaker and more neoliberal version is advocated by the OECD (2002) which advises that the stabilization clauses should not grant blanket exemptions or rights to compensation, but should be restricted to clearly…”
