This volume contains a selection of the most influential literature on the historical evolution of collaborative agreements in international business. The book covers the period 1893-1993 and stresses the continuity during that time of strategic business alliances and other forms of collaboration. This collection of papers seeks to explore the rich experience of strategic alliances and business collaborations of the period under review and to highlight its importance for present-day debates, and how they affect the strategies of a wide range of American, Japanese and European industries and firms.
