Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book meticulously investigates the role of transport costs, trade and investment barriers, production scale economies, and firm-specific advantages in determining the choice of overseas production relative to exports as alternative modes of foreign market penetration. Grounded in empirical research, the book extends beyond previous work in this field by using a more precise measure of transportation costs and addressing the issue of simultaneity. The analysis reveals that trade and investment barriers significantly impact the share of total sales accounted for by affiliate sales, supporting the proximity-concentration hypothesis. The book highlights that the decision to establish overseas production facilities or export hinges on a complex interplay of factors, and that proximity and market access play a crucial role. This book will be of great interest to scholars, policymakers, and business leaders seeking a deeper understanding of the dynamics of international trade and investment.
