Measuring corporate internationalisation: a review of measurement concepts and their use

Abstract: "This paper discusses various ways of measuring corporate internationalisation. The concepts considered here became of crucial importance in the recent debate on globalisation, since many scholars link globalisation to a quantitative increase in the international activities of firms. However, this paper shows that opinions about the extent of this increase differ widely depending on what measurement concept is used. The paper further highlights that there is no unique and comprehensive measurement concept. Thus viable results depend on the difficult task of bringing research questions, measurement concepts and data availability into line." (author's abstract)
