Abstract

This article explores the multiple and interwoven effects of accelerating international market integration in order to allow economic actors to better distinguish upcoming stakes. The authors identified four related, often connected, research perspectives within the international business field. Each of these areas is studied in turn: integrating new logics of diagnostic and decision-making, considering new types of stakeholders, changing balance of power between economic territories and players, and strengthening the relationship between intercultural evolutions and the transformation of organizational plans.
