This long-awaited new book from Cynthia Day Wallace picks up the thread of her

best-selling Legal Control of the Multinational Enterprise: National Regulatory Techniques

and the Prospects for International Controls . In the present work she applies herself to

legal and pragmatic aspects of control surrounding MNE operations. The primary

focus is on legal and administrative techniques and measures practised by host states to

control - transparently or less so - foreign MNE activity within their territories, or even

extraterritorially when effects are felt within national boundaries. The primary geographic focus is the six most investment-intensive industrialized states (namely,Canada, France, Germany, Japan, the United States and the United Kingdom). At the same time an important message of the present study is precisely the implication for the developing countries as well as for the emerging market economies of central and eastern Europe - and even Asian nations besides Japan, because it is the sharing of this

very 'experience of years' that can best serve to facilitate a fuller participation on the part of the up-and-coming economies in the same global market place.
