ANZIBA 2012: CALL FOR PAPERS

FUSION OR FRACTURING? IMPLICATIONS FOR INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS

---

Some research in international business suggests there will be a fusion between Eastern and Western business models. Will West learn from East more than East does from West? Will Asian approaches become so dominant that there will be a fracturing of East and West? Join us and contribute to this debate.
