- catalog abstract ""Brown and her colleagues present a probing analysis of how multinational corporations, their local joint venture partners, and developing countries negotiate and ultimately reconcile sets of potentially competing values: development, equity, and independence on the one hand, and environment, health, and safety on the other. Case studies of three facilities recently established in India and Thailand by Du Pont Agrichemical, Occidental Chemical, and Xerox form the backdrop for the analysis. These three cases reveal the critical role of host-country development policies, corporate culture, and business partnerships in shaping value trade-offs during the facility siting process." "The analysis offers rich insights into a key question facing multinationals in today's global economy: How does a responsible corporation involved with hazardous technologies navigate multiple and often conflicting demands of host countries and business partners to ensure both financial and environmental success? The stories of three facilities present valuable lessons in organizational behavior, hazard management, and the role of multinational enterprises in promoting sustainable development."--BOOK JACKET.".
