Description:

Three Credits This course focuses on the legal, cultural, ethical, political, and business framework within which international trade takes place. Within this larger framework, the specific mechanisms involved in exporting and importing, particularly as conducted by small- to medium-sized enterprises, are an important sub-focus. Areas to be studied include forms of business available for international trade (including strategic alliances, multinational operations, import and export brokers, and others); relationships between businesses and governments; strategic choice of mode of entry into the foreign market; political risk; international legal environment; trade financing; the European Community; NAFTA; the impact of cultural differences on trade relationship formation and maintenance; culture as a source of competitive advantage; and ethical problems. Students are required to do a term paper which involves international research (including research on-line) and analysis of the entire international trade framework for a chosen foreign country from the point of view of a medium-sized U.S. exporter. Offered every fall. Prerequisite: BUS 100 Recommended: BUS 382, ECON 442
