N2  - This book contains the report released from the Committee for Economic Development (CED), a private, non-profit research organization comprised of corporation heads and university presidents, this new study details important new changes taking place in the relationship between multinational corporations (MNCs) and developing countries.
The major theme optimistically asserts that MNCs have become sensitized to political and social needs of developing countries while those nations have become more pragmatic and cooperative in their dealings with MNCs. To substantiate this claim, the author a former Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for Economic Affairs, analyzes the results of personal and written interviews with top managers of 402 subsidiaries from 90 MNCs based in the U.S., Europe, Japan, and Australia. The interviews cover a wide range of controversial subjects such as finding independent sources for various components of a foreign investment package (unbundling), rowing, adaptation and licensing of technology, transfer pricing, incentives, export requirements and corrupt practices
