brain circulation diaspora and International Competitiveness
European Management Journal, 2008Co-Authors: Rosalie L. TungAbstract:Summary Drawing upon findings of several studies, this paper examines the interrelationships between brain circulation or "triangular human talent flow", ethnic diasporas (specifically, the Chinese and Indian diasporas), and a country's International Competitiveness. Globalization, the lowering of immigration and emigration barriers to the movement of people, and the emerging concept of boundaryless careers have all contributed to the phenomenon of brain circulation. Brain circulation replaces the traditional concepts of brain drain versus brain gain because of the growing mobility of human talent across International boundaries. Implications, both theoretical and practical, are then discussed.

An Overview of Industrial International Competitiveness
2008 4th International Conference on Wireless Communications Networking and Mobile Computing, 2008Co-Authors: Li ChuangAbstract:Industrial International Competitiveness is a hot research issue of the current economic field. Many scholars at home and abroad make a great deal of research on it, but a broad overview of its theory and analysis model is not common. This paper firstly analyzed the different explanation on the industrial International Competitiveness by the absolute cost advantage theory, the relative competitive advantage theory, and the factor endowment theory and their shortages, and introduced the improvements and breakthrough of the "Diamond model" by Porter. At the same time, domestic research situation and existing problems are also analyzed from the five aspects: industrial background, industrial scale, industrial structure, industry value chain, industry trend, which laid the foundation for the future study.

the International Competitiveness of asian firms
Journal of Strategy and Management, 2008Co-Authors: Alan M Rugman, Chang Hoon OhAbstract:Purpose – Conventional studies of International Competitiveness use country‐level data, but the aim of this paper is to extend this work by using firm level data of large Asian firms.Design/methodology/approach – The authors gathered the regional sales and assets data for large Asian firms listed in latest Fortune Global 500 from their annual reports. They then applied the data to the firm specific advantage/country specific advantage matrix and the regional matrix frameworks developed by Rugman.Findings – It is found that most Asian firms do not operate globally, but focus on their home region. Thus, Asian firms exploit and develop their FSAs regionally. Only a few large Japanese and Korean firms have significant sales outside of Asia. Large Asian firms vie with their regional competitors in their home region market.Originality/value – International Competitiveness does not necessarily mean globalization or global competition. International strategic management should consider the reality of regional com...

the double diamond model of International Competitiveness the canadian experience
Management International Review, 1993Co-Authors: Alan M Rugman, Joseph R DcruzAbstract:Abstract * Porter's home-base diamond model of International Competitiveness is seriously flawed when applied to a small, open, trading economy like Canada's. * Porter's framework needs to be adapted to explain Canada's successful resource-based multinationals, foreign subsidiaries and access to the triad market of the United States through the Free Trade Agreement. A new "double diamond" framework is developed to achieve this. Key words * Porter's single diamond model works for large triad economies but needs to be adapted for smaller countries like Canada. Introduction The influential Porter (1990) study on the determinants of International Competitiveness suggests that the home country "diamond" is the source of competitive advantage for domestic firms. The competitive advantage of a firm depends upon one, or more, of the four key determinants of the nation's International Competitiveness. The successful domestic firms build upon this home base and can then export or engage in outward foreign direct investment. In short, Porter's model states that a global firm needs to have a sustainable competitive advantage based on the successful utilization of components of its home country diamond. The thesis of this article is that Porter's diamond framework explains the success of U.S., Japanese and E.C.-based multinationals, i.e. the triad. However, Porter's model is not applicable to small, open, trading economies which are not parts of this triad. For example, Rugrnan and D'Cruz (1991) have demonstrated that Canada's International Competitiveness is not explained by the Porter home country diamond. They show that substantial modifications of the Porter framework are required to analyze the nature of Canada's foreign-owned firms and institutional arrangements, such as the Canada-U.S. Free Trade Agreement. The latter arrangement suggest that the Canadian diamond need to be considered jointly with the U.S. diamond, i.e. that the Canadian managers needs to operate in this "double diamond" framework. Indeed, Rugman and D'Cruz propose that a "North American diamond" be used by Canadian managers and policy makers-in searching for useful answers to the question of how to improve Canada's International Competitiveness. A similar insight emerges from the work of Cartwright (1991) in his assessment of the application of the Porter model in the New Zealand study. A team headed by Porter used the Porter single diamond theory as a benchmark for a study of the International Competitiveness of New Zealand, see Crocombe, Enright and Porter (1991). In his critique, Cartwright demonstrates, using empirical judgemental impact scores, that a "double diamond" framework has much greater explanatory power in a New Zealand context than does Porter's home country diamond model Cartwright concludes that his results "cast serious doubt on the ability of the Porter diamond theory to account satisfactorily for the International Competitiveness of land-based industries that must export a high proportion of their production" (Cartwright 1991, p. 7). In a related, but independent, development Cho (1991) has also adapted the Porter diamond in order to better explain the role of inward foreign direct investment into Korea. Cho extends Porter's six factor model into a nine factor model and tests it to explain Japanese FDI (that by Japanese sogo-shoshas) in Korea, in relation to the performance of Japanese sogo-Shoshas in Korea, whereas the methodology of Porter (1990) would require the use of the Japanese diamond, not the Korean. How, then, Should Porter's model be modified to explain the International Competitiveness of small, open, trading nations such as Canada, New Zealand, and Korea? Here it is demonstrated that each country needs to set its own home-country diamond against the relevant "triad" diamond. In general, most Asia-Pacific nations will set theirs against Japan's. …

China Forestry Economy, 2020Co-Authors: Yu Jian-huiAbstract:Carries on the quantitative evaluation on International Competitiveness of Chinese WBP industry separately from the International market share, the trade competition index, RCA index and GL index, which is based on FAOSTAT statistical data of WBP from 1961 to 2004. Then the paper Internationally compares on International Competitiveness of Chinese WBP industry with WBP mainly exporting countries,such as US, Canada and Germany and so on. The conclusion is that Chinese WBP industry has little strong International Competitiveness in 2004, and displays the tendency which strengthens unceasingly.

measuring International Competitiveness the case of the european food industry
International Business Review, 1996Co-Authors: Bruce Traill, Joao Gomes Da SilvaAbstract:Indices of International Competitiveness are generally trade based, such as the index of revealed comparative advantage. This paper argues that International production should be taken into account in the measurement of International Competitiveness in an age when it often exceeds trade. Consequently, based on alternative views of the relative importance of inward and outward foreign production, various modifications of traditional indices are presented and discussed. An empirical application carried out for the food processing sectors of France, Germany, Italy and the United Kingdom, shows that the modified indices differ substantially from the conventional ones in both the level and, more importantly, the trends in the Competitiveness measures.
