When Great Powers Struggle: How Geopolitical Alignments of Small States Are Influenced by Their MNEs
Journal of Management Studies, EarlyView.Abstract Comparing two distinct deglobalization periods, this study shows how Finnish multinational enterprises (MNEs) used corporate diplomatic activities (CDA) to influence Finland's alignment with a struggling great power. Drawing from hegemonic stability theory and new institutional economics, we argue that the power's collapsing global networks ...

Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1990 The U.S. Antarctic Program will have a new ship for working in polar waters by early 1992. It will be the first U.S. ship with icebreaking capability dedicated to scientific research. The Polar Duke, currently leased by the National Science Foundation, which manages the program, is ice‐strengthened but cannot break ice.NSF announced in February that an
